hello everyone, I'm relatively new to 914s but have been involved with Porsches for many years. I'm in the process of restoring a 914-6. Overall its a fairly original non-rusty car (it was ziebarted when new). I purchased the car from a gentleman that bought in 1972. I am trying to do the restoration as much back to stock as possible. I was hoping someone could help me out with a few items.
1) what would the original suspension have been on the car and what color were the shocks? 2) Would the car have come with a front sway bar or did the PO add that? 3) The engine is original to the car but at one point the PO tossed the air filter housing. Anyone have a line on where i can find and original air filter housing? Thanks in advance |

My original '71 914-6 had the U brackets but no sway bar and no corresponding holes in the wheel wells. During the restoration we added stock later model 914 sway bars front and rear. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png)
