working on my first 914 ! Group: Members Posts: 653 Joined: 13-April 16 From: Holland, the Netherlands Member No.: 19,896 Region Association: Europe |
Yes, we had 914 policecars here in teh Netherlands, so that would be ours !
PS and that 'fake patina look' on the 356 coupe...(that is also a dutch car) is a polyester body kit sprayed to look that way, done very well to be honest. Drew a lot of crowd the last years on meetings. |

Is that how the police dressed back then? I think he wants his stapler back. Would be real hard to 'restore order' looking like that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

How many of these were produced and in what country were they in service? They were used in several European countries, including Germany. There are some old threads here with pictures ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

East Germany used the Red..I"ve seen old pictures but can't come up with them now. Pelican shows almost the same paint on 911 from the Netherlands.

Did euro go big bumper when little old California demanded it? Experts I'm sure will chip in, but yes I would have thought so. Lots of modifications to the shell happened to facilitate the big bumpers. Extra tabs to hold the end of the bumper as it wraps around, holes for the shock thingies etc Plus by then Porsche would have been planning the 914 demise / weren't selling loads in Europe anyway, ¾ ? went to the US. Why produce something special for Europe 911 went big bumper in 74, we just didn't get the Dolly Parton tits, same logic with the 914 I guess |
