This is the drivers side shock cover, passenger side had no markings. Also on the drivers side strut housing is a dab of white paint down near the brake line couple on the passenger side.
The date, 373 is also stamped into the calipers. My car is a 73. Attached image(s) |

Thanks for doing that for me. It really is quite interesting.
Can you provide the body # and date code from the compliance decal to help me compare dates please. |

Here's a bit of 914 archeology for you. Found this while scraping undercoating of the drivers front wheel well.
the door jam tag is missing on my car, so I cant give the date off of it. FWIW the rear calipers are also stamped 373. I think i've seen it elsewhere, but cant remember. VIN is 4732918716. Attached image(s) |
