In the process of downsizing, I discovered this picture I didn't know I had. At the time I was marketing real estate franchises and the picture was a reenactment of a push start that had occurred at some long forgotten event that was sent to me.

When I bought the car, the bumpers and rockers had been painted black but I could see traces of the yellow. The Mahles had been replaced also. At the time, the Bumblebee paint scheme was just a novelty and I was just as glad the yellow accents had been removed. After previously owning a '73 1.7, the 2.0 in this car was a big improvement in performance. Had to sell it when circumstances changed and ended up with a Toyota Corolla.

The car is listed in the VIN registry, owned by a guy in S. Carolina. I don't know if it's in the LE Registry.

Whats the last 5 of the VIN Marc?

16665

Aha 16665!

I recently found your car - a 928 owner owns it and completely rebuilt it. He is in SC, bought it out of Washington state without its drivetrain. He was not familiar with the 914 LE cars and was delighted to discover that it is an LE.

LOVE the LE registry!!!
