Hello - I have a new (to me) 914 race car that was made from at least 3 parts cars - and Now I am trying to buy parts and need help..... The body - no a- pillars no windshield ---- front pass fender has a welded plate for the cage over the vin --- no bumpers and holes drilled all over the front area --- I destroyed a firewall shift bushing that I bought (did the hot water and all) and now I think it could be for the wrong car year.
-- How to ID the body year ???? pass side floor has seat hinges , if that helps. I also need help with front end id, how to tell if the front susp is early or late ??? and calipers ??? ------ the rear trailing arms, how to Id early from late --- I have the calipers off the car -- I got 4 trailing arms and 2 complete front susp -- with the car , but need to id them to buy spare parts.... is there a good place to see pixs??? I have searched sites and googled but never come up with what I need ----- __________________ |
