A couple of thoughts, this being St Patick's Day:
1. Any idea how many 914s were painted Irish Green (color code L60E) out of the total production run? 2. More important, how many are left? I've seen pictures of some outstanding cars here--but as the saying goes, "Quantity has a quality all its own." |

I had a 1970 with tan interior bought in 1978 for $168.00.

A bit faded but mostly still original paint. Although the COA says paint code 15. and it's a -6.  |

A 914 6 with original steel wheels and hubcaps is very unusual today.....and sneaky beautiful. But I'm biased. Rory Gallagher |
