Just bought a 73’ 914 with vin# 4732915040 and engine # ec040007. Is this a number matching car? If not what is this engine and what is it out of. I love the car and it’s fun to drive. Looking at it closer now though I’m seeing some issues.

EC040007 would be a 1975MY 1.8 engine case. The only fibreglass would be in the removable roof. Sometimes you will see a fabric texture on the floorboard tar from the carpets. However if there is no sound dampening tar on the floor, then repairs are highly likely.
