ANY INFO ON FIRST 1000 73' 914 DIFFERENCES?, DRUNK RAN STOP--GOT ME-- Options

[orange914]

a couple weeks ago i posted some some pics off my sons 914 that collided into a drunk and her son (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/drunk.gif) who ran a stop (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/icon_bump.gif) (2-way stop,it was determined 100% her fault and she was cuffed and arrested (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) ) fortunately my son and wife seem to be overall o.k.. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif)
now the fun part of dealing with the insurance, they say its should be fixable but i am a little worried. the body shop gave a estimate of $5800-ouch-.
i would like to know more about the first 1000 of the 73' 1.7's which mine is. auto atlanta gave me some scolding (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) when i asked about parts converting to 916 and he saw pic's and checked v.i.n.. the only thing i know at this point is it has 1)vinyl around windsheild 2)A.R. rims (dealer installed?)

ANY KNOWLEGE WILL BE GREATLY APPRICIATED!
thanks

Supposedly, the first 1000 to roll out for the 1973 model year were initially slated for the German market

yes, but does that make them "worth" more than the 914's made before or after that batch of 1000???

I think not, unless you "have" to "have" those few items to make your car different.....

if you could get the car appraised to have a higher value, you might have a better chance of getting more money from the insurance company or when you take the woman to court to cover the additional money lost due to her negligance....
