To add to the mystery, while all of the various tags match each other and the COA, the paint code on the door jamb tag is clearly wrong. The tag shows paint code L20C, which is Nepal Orange:
While the car has been repainted at some point, I have had it disassembled enough to know that it was never Nepal Orange. The body number on the paint tag matches the number near the right headlight inside the trunk: The bulkhead tag, windshield pillar tag and door jamb sticker all match: It's pretty clear this car has not been built from two others. The paint tag is wrong on the color, and the COA is wrong on the engine number. IMHO, that makes this particular 914 1 of 1, and therefore, worth megabucks. |
