(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif) I purchased this 914 in 1994 and have been working on getting it just right since. But theres two un-answered questions i cant seem to find who made the body kit (i bought the car with it on it) or just what options the car came with orignally. It has A/C Center console w/ gauges, Individual seats. No Anti-sway bars. the vin is 4742916732 made 04/74. I believe it had a 1.8L when i bought it. It then had a 2.0L and now its being preped for an LS1. Any info that you Guys/Girls can give me would be very appreciated. FYI my first car i ever purchaced was a 1972 mint 914 1.7L ever since ive loved them, this is my 5th and not the last. Thanks.

Part of it sure is a Rayco... also, related to the bondo, and primer white one from ebay 3 years ago, that the guy's grandfather built from scratch.

I was told once before it was a Chalon II kit. i changed the rear bumper to the 916 style. i guess the quarters are more of a home job. heres a better picture of the front.

Rayco did make another kit not as popular as the one shown. I do however forget what it looked like and can not find the paperwork. The car does look like a more modern chalon though! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

Sean,
The pics you posted look just like mine. I do remember that Rayco produced some kits prior to the one I have and they were pretty basic. The one posted reminds me of my 944
