Well, we went down yesterday and picked up passes to the auction. We walked out to the display tents and immediately found the 914.... As I was looking for the car, a guy walked and asked about it. I began describing the non-original pieces... Come to find out, I was talking to the owner. After about 5 minutes, he gave me his card and walked off, I think disappointed. He said he bought it at Hersey this year and paid way too much. Several others walked up and I again described the differences. The car is nice, but ..... Before I left, everyone agreed the bidding should be between 10,000 and 15,000...
Here are the pics of the missing/non-original parts... -- Rob |

After checking out the cars in the parking lot tent, we went inside for the really nice cars.... While we were walking around, they drove this car into place right where we were standing... This made my trip...

shoehorn and some butter - it fits Group: Members Posts: 1,547 Joined: 23-January 06 From: Broomfield, CO Member No.: 5,463 Region Association: None |
so if you layer carpeting, does that make it plush carpeting? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) If you get twice the carpeting that has to be worth, like, an extra grand, right?!

The car is nice, but ..... Looks like it used to be silver! Did you get the paint code off the Karman Plate? VIN? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Andy |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Yes, that's what i was referring to. I've never seen a (factory paint) car where the firewall was not body color. What is the paint code on your Karman plate? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Andy |

that 914 def isn't "original"
