 Hey allMy name is mike, I’ve been a member of 914world (914club) since march 2005 when my son Kenny (a.k.a. orange914) bought his first 914. at present he owns an early 1973 that is a keeper. This is why I’m researching this particular 914 From what I’ve learned the first 1000 1973 914’s were slated for the European market but sent to the U.S. due to early 73 demand. They have some unique features that I’m attempting to research. I contacted a few members earlier on this but had my computer crash and lost all info. If you have ANY info. On this car or have noticed any oddities drop a line. Please e-mail me Thanks, mike (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) 209-537-3749 My e-mail address is: orange914@yahoo.com |

I've got a late '73 with the door beams. I noticced you said in one of the other posts that the late doors have 200# of reinforcing in them. I don't agree with you there. I've handed both early and late doors and cut the beams out of a set of late doors and there is not 200 pounds more steel in late doors. Maybe there is 25 pounds per door at the most. I don't mean to nit pick but wanted to let you know.
