I'm sure this has come up before... the dash on my 70 -6 is Tangerine whereas the chassis is Signal Orange. Interesting how different the colors really are. I like the Tangerine better.

I've seen this before on glove box doors. Not yet on the dash. This is definitely a real -6 dash.

My car is in a rotisserie with soda and dry ice blasting scheduled for next Tuesday. Some steel fab and welding to do but not bad at all, at least so far!

Very common. I’ve actually never seen a dash that matches the original body color and I’ve parted quite a few 914’s.

Nothing matched. The IMPORTANT information is the hand written number under the dash.

Thanks Mark and Mark.
The other two recent 914's I took completely apart, both 1973 cars, had the same color dash as the car.

I get to paint this car signal orange when I like the tangerine better!
