Looks nice, I like the tool kit! Is that the correct speedomoter for the car?

It could have just as well started out as a rusty POS, who knows?

I believe that is the proper speedo for that car. The 914/6s had either a 150 MPH speedo or 250 KPH speedo with the silver button.

The speedo looks the same as the one in my car, but the tach is not original so the speedo could have been changed.

Sweet car...but would the R offset rims really let you put 225 tires under the stock flares (even w/ a pinched or removed fender lip?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Those gauges all look original to me. 150mph speedo, and an 8K Tach w/redline @6500.
Yes - The -4's had 120mph speedo's |

That is the sloppy-est seam sealer job I've ever seen in a trunk. That's not right. Nice car but that's not right. The removable plugs look like a painted wade of barf. Nice car though.

I think that car needs to undergo some significant scrutiny. i don't think the 'goo' is much worse than my car - but i am a little disappointed that they painted right over the plastic plugs in the dogbone... also, FWIW, the turnsignals (F+R) are not original US parts, but changing them to Euro parts was a popular thing to do when the cars were new ... |

I have seen several early sixes with the seam sealer applied from the factory as so.
I think the red/orange car that Brad recently listed may have also had it. |
