1974 VW Porsche 914 Retro Mod
Whats a Retro Mod?
This sunflower yellow '74 model has been modified to have the appearance an early ('69-70) European delivery spec VW/ Porsche type 47.
So whats different?
While retaining the improvements of the later versions this car has the following appearance modifications to match the very first versions offered to the European market.
Body color bumpers. sail panels and trim.
European lighting. the US spec front side markers have been deleted as well as the bumper guards.
OEM Hella Euro front and rear lenses and Hella H4 (flat lens) headlamps with white plastic surrounds.
Front park lamps feature aluminum reflectors and LED white lights.
VW- Porsche rear badging without Porsche script on the engine vent grille.
Early 1970 OEM steel wheels with VW crest caps.
Wolfsberg crest steering wheel horn pad.
Early OEM steel porthole rear valance.
Chrome interior door lever bezels and window cranks.
Subtle differences for sure but a departure from the ubiquitous chrome bumper appearance group alloy wheeled 914s.
US spec badging. bright sail panel trim black headlight surrounds and Porsche crest horn pad are included with the car.
Also two Targa roof panels one standard textured black and one body color.
Other Modifications
Fresh 1. 8 engine is equipped with Dellorto 36mm carburetors.
Full stainless heater boxes with Tri-mil header and muffler. ( an aluminum heat shield has been fitted)
Weltmeister short shifter.
Solid state voltage regulator.

Some of the New Stuff

Sway bar bushes and end sockets CV joints. nbsp; pedal assembly re bush and so on.
This car sat for 15 years in dry storage before the restoration and no rust repairs were needed or performed. an amazing starting point.
All panels stripped to bare metal painted with PPG epoxy primer and urethane single stage top coat to the original sunflower yellow. Very straight with perfect door gaps.
The car has not been used since completion save for road testing and one car club meet. (less than 100 miles)
It should go without saying that the car runs and drives as good as it looks.
Original owners manual. radio. Hershman ant. jack and tire tools.
I will facilitate transport world wide but buyer must provide their own carrier at their own expense.
