I am new to this board; my father and I are starting a restoration of a 1972 (he is the second owner) that he parked in his barn about 24 years ago. I have a question on the chrome bumper bars that are on this car. Were these a dealer option, or do you think they were added aftermarket?
Thank you very much, Nathan |

Couple of things of note here (won't hurt any feelings by commenting on the bars):
Color is most probably Bahia Red (bahiarot). The rear snowplow has the same problem that my original had. Someone put on an aftermarket exhaust (probably Bursch), and the hole had to be extended in all directions for the tailpipe to exit (yes, I did it). So you now have this gaping hole in an almost impossible piece to replace. Looks like a salvageable 914. What's the VIN, so we can record it to this site? Pat |
