Okay folks,
I've owned my early-73 MY 914-2.0 (914S for Pat G. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ), and I looked at the VIN label on the driver's door jamb, but the build date could either be an "8" but missing one of the "punch-dots" in the left side of the lower loop, or a "9" with an "extra dot" (& don't ask about the COA - no help there). ... so which is it ???? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I'm also aware of another 73 MY VIN 01102 built 9/72, & another on here VIN 01654 built 8/72 IIRC - & both are earlier VINs than mine - so did they build VINs out of date order?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) My VIN Door Jamb Label: ... and here's my project to restore - finally outside last Sunday before the "monsoon" hit! ... Lotsa work for me to do, to say the least! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) |
