QUOTE(Tom_T @ Apr 3 2018, 02:10 PM)  Hopefully you also got all the documentation, service records, etc. from day one from the PO, & window sticker & dealer invoice if still with him/her too. On one this nice, I'd also suggest that you get a COA from PCNA, unless that came with the documents. Is it a 1.8L or 2.0L? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) /////// Tom - It is a 1.8. He is providing a lot of documentation including owners manual and original bill of sale, but no window sticker that I'm aware of. Not looking for hood badge rather the PORSCHE lettering on engine grill. QUOTE(billh1963 @ Apr 3 2018, 02:29 PM) Glad to have another 914 in South Carolina! With a rebuilt 1.8 and carbs the car should scoot on down the road fairly nicely. It has had a rebuild with an upgraded cam and carbs. How'd you know? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

No to the hood badge....looking for engine grill lettering. Found OEM gold on eBay for $180. I'll check Suncoast and others to see what they say. Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm already liking it here!
I will post pics of the delivery, first cars and coffee, track day, etc... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I started the local Cars & Coffee and I have an HPDE side business. I'm slightly addicted to our culture. |

and that tornado mirror has to go and be replaced by the original factory stainless. Hate to say it, but we sold it to the previous owner of your car!!!!! (way back then along with those rear update kits!) (how could I?)

Welcome and congratulations on your first 914 Don911. Notice I said first; it is difficult to have only one.
Hope you enjoy it and post lots of pics. Be well. Bill. |

Love the car!!! I'd hold off on a hood badge, get the stock mirrors back on it, and maybe look for some alloy wheels, Fuchs, Mahles, or Pedrinis. Welcome to our madness. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) that's a clean machine !
I have a couple of 914 roofs...the freight from SoCal might be more than the top is worth (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) If you need to buy another top; lots of East coast guys on board here can hook it up...put a want-to-buy ad in the classifieds. |

Looks very similar to my car, minus the stripe. FYI, Nepal Orange is the best 914 color... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)
Congrats (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
