I've taken enough hints from Pete Stout about my rear bumper being a late chrome and my car being an early 914-6 GT replica. I get it Pete (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Looking to buy or trade for an early 914-6 chrome rear bumper. Mine's pretty much perfect so yours should either be in similar condition or you include some cash... Here's mine. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Not sure how I became the boogie man on this one? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Rob, I honestly don't remember giving you grief about putting an early rear bumper on your car. I view your 914 as a very cool hot rod rather than a GT replica—not that what I think matters much.
The only reason my 1973 914 is running an early rear bumper is pure chance: I got rear-ended in 1995 and the bumper shop didn't like either core I sent...so it used one of its cores—which happened to be an early bumper. A fellow 914 enthusiast approached me at the Parade in Portland that year to inform me I had the wrong bumper (I didn't know) and asked if I'd trade with him; I said sure so long as the 1972-1973 bumper on his 914-6 was equally nice. When he called my dorm room, he told me I should pay for shipping. I was a college student with a $15 couch, and felt that, since he was the one asking to swap, he should pay for shipping. He didn't like that, then said my 914 didn't deserve that bumper. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) Suddenly, I thought the subtly different early bumper looked really good on the car. Still do, 22 years later. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) P.S.: I wouldn't have recommended chrome bumpers for your 914 anyway. Were it mine, I'd run satin black GT bumpers, a GT front valance, no rear valance, and chrome foglight grilles, like the car below. This car inhabits my dreams. Attached image(s) |
