Mine's pretty tired after all these years and more importantly, I am having trouble getting the car registered here in California with the unreadable sticker (They just don't seem to have any compassion for undocumented 914s). In particular, I am looking for a 1971 engine compartment smog sticker.
Anyone have one laying around?
I recently registered my 71 that was from out of state and had the same problem. What I did to get around the crazy Ca registration red tape was this : I went to the samba website and looked up a vehicle emissions sticker for a 1971 type IV bus . The seller has two different types, one is Ca compliant and the other is federal. Get the Ca compliant. I then made the sticker look weathered slapped it on the driver side engine compartment under the grill so it made it difficult to see and before you know it I passed inspection at AAA. The sticker for the bus and 914 are very similar and the people at AAA more than likely won't know the difference. I will say that this method is not fool proof but it worked for me. I could not find the the sticker anywhere, no one is making it, so I took the 71 bus route and it worked. They will also look for three VIN #s on the car. 1. windshield 2. drivers side door jamb sticker 3. Front trunk passenger side fender plate.
Good luck and reach out to me if you have any questions on my experience registering my Arizona 914 here in Ca.
