So, after having had the pleasure to drive this beautiful, unmolested, all original, 37k miles 914-6 today, i can't help but wonder if we should attempt to list all the differences between an early /6 and early /4 in terms of originality.
I believe it would be of tremendous help to have a list of things "to look for" when doing a PPI on such a time-capsule. What do ya'all think? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Andy |

Yer kidding? That's what they used on the 4.5 wheels, right?
BTW, if in Germany does the TUV require stock sized tires? |
