Is the owner Dave Chamberlain? Is the last five of the VIN 15369? Yes! Dave Chamberlin still living in Morrison, CO. I need to sell this one even tho I have had it for a long time. I'm 83 and it is becoming more difficult to work on with each passing year. I would consider any serious offer. |

Ferg (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Ferg, That was the October 19, 2002 Road Rally that is also in video form. I was behind Brant and the camera car was a Red Boxster at the end of the line right behind me. Good fun. Dave |

Hi Dave,
do you have a picture of rear and front trunk. This could be turned back into a Black car and it would be much easier if they are not painted red. PM sent Thanks, Bob B |

Front trunk and rear trunk. There was no rust problems when the body work and paint change was made. The body work was for a major dent but no filler or substitute body work took place. The work was done by a custom shop in Longmont, Colorado. The metal is a little thinner where the dent was taken out but he did a great job. The engine compartment remains in the original black

Light grey headlight relay covers? Is this a real LE car It is 4742915369 with the right numbers for an LE. It was black and yellow when I got it locally in 1988. The numbers seem to line up with the LE page by Jeff Bowlsby. I still have the yellow steel rockers. It has the LE instrumentation along withe the original front and rear anti-sway bars. I'm 83 years old and am still working as a seminary professor. I teach on basic moral issues along with ethics. I believe it to be a true LE. I don't have a C of A because I thought I would try to sell it without that long drawn-out process. My thought was that with all the extras it would be a good deal for someone wanting to get a nice 914 regardless of it being an LE or not. It has black headlight relay covers. I wasn't concerned about it being an LE when I first purchased it. I like Guards Red which, by the way, is not a proper color for any 914. |

Some photos when it went into repaint and body work. Note the yellow bumpers that were not chrome but painted for the LE models.

NICE - welcome! What's the plans?! Thank you! Although I don't post much Ive definitely been a lurker in the used car section over the years! I think I'm going to drive her a bit, and then fully restore. Just got hit with some health issues, so also have to sort that out first. UGH!! My orange 914 is going out for work, so will be nice that this replaces her for now. |
