I remember a salvage yard just across the freeway from skyharbor, west of the airport in Phoenix that had several 914's. I pulled some parts for my 72 back in the mid nineties. I am not sure if they are still there or not. The salvage yard dealt in just Porsche. I live in Colorado now so I can't run down to check.

Might as well add this Andy as it is my parts car with a salvaged title last licensed 04/30/2010, lots of rust and pretty well striped down, never to see the road unless towed!

Saw a few in the junkyard. Don't think anyone will save these. I'll be picking a few parts though.

Some of these may be duplicates

I haven't tried this, but if I enter a VIN that is already in the database, does it warn me, or flag it as a duplicate?

Nope, there can be multiple entries per VIN, that way, we can keep a VIN history of sorts.

And multiple entries only count once against the overall VIN count ...

Hi Andy,
I stopped at a local Porsche Repair shop in the metro area (Novi, MI) and took a few cell phone pics of a 1974 914-6 conversion with a 3.6 engine under development. The shop didn't want to give out the owners name, just allowed me to take a few cell phone pics. Interesting stuff, I'll keep checking on the progress.

Found a 1975 1.8 liter car at the Pick-N-Pull in Fairfield, California today. Build date was February 1975. Car was orange and still had its original factory paint — looked like it had never been repainted. VIN was 4752908856. Kerman No. was 8758009. Paint color was L20C. There was also a tag on the inner right front fender with the number 075-9002. The rust was terminal. Floors completely gone and passenger door would not open because body was collapsing. Drivers door was open but looked like someone had taken a giant can opener to it. Dash was all rusted, as was handbrake lever. Car must have parked outside for years with the top off.
