My book shows the earliest chassis number as a

1969/1970 914/4 1.7 4702900001

I wonder where that one is!

Jeff

Oops... I meant to type in '76 regarding Bleyseng's serial number. Was tired last night.

the last digits are 0347


OOPS thats my 928.

I got to look at the teener, I am sure I am not in the running.

I'll add mine for posterity. Certainly not the youngest or oldest: 9140432238

I thought I'd read that the 0 was the year, the 43 a factory location and the last four #'s the build sequence.

Doesn't Brad have 9140430003?

He's not saying anything cuz he doesn't want any WD40 I'll bet.

Geoff

Didn't they build more than 9999 a year?
So how could the last four be the sequance?

Paul

they never built more than about 3500 /6's total !
4 digits for sequence number was just fine...

/4's got 5-digit sequence numbers ...

Sorry,
I thought we were talking about -4's

Paul

now is anyone actually collecting all this info and putting it in a nice spreadsheet that we then can use to build our very own 914club registry

don't and

Dad's Car... 4702910141

The Blue Car... 4722916162

Don't have the VIN's in front of me for the parts cars.

4762902998

76 2.0 D-jet

Because if the 15949 is the 74 car (dads?) its in the 914 LE VIN range.

4762901033

Oh all right: 4742916722

Hey scotty...Do you have an LE car? Your VIN is just at the edge of the known LE VINs.

Whats your color code from the door jamb plate?

Not an LE that I know of (third owner). Given the paint code L51p (Olympic Blue) I kinda doubt it... Karman chassis #1519554, if that helps.

This looks like a solid, low number so far:
4702902329
1970 914 Originally 1.7 Irish Green
now 283 Chevrolet British Racing Green
