AFAIK the center 'deposit 'was in all 914 6s from the start.
Sway bars on a 6 ? oddly, 'no'
Excellent catch of the Vac lines on the (wrong) right side manifold.
Also, no cold start plumbing attached to the air filter housing or fuel line.
No cold start solenoid there either.
Still an outstanding car.

My observation... After all is said and done, could this six restoration be or set the new 'reference bar' for many of us to follow?

Take out your paper pad and pencil folks---draw a line down the middle and start writing the 'rights/wrongs'. Then do the same for your 'reference-point' which you may be using as your current 'barometer'.

I'm really curious to learn what those results are... LOL

Beautiful car that is at a level that not many will reproduce.
My car will NEVER be that nice in my lifetime..

As far as the headliner.. My car is #619 and didn't have one.
Also.. No sway bar but the mounting tabs were on the A Arms for them.
I drilled the holes in the body to put a set in.. Back in 75.

I'll have to check my door panels..
the tether for the passenger foot rest caught my attention also.
Also no center console.. just the pad for the 3rd passenger..


You can always find something incorrect with any car..
But this one seems to have done a great job on 99.5%
of the details..

Sort of unfortunate our cars are worth this much..
Was easier when they were undesirable...........

Adding to the debate..

#0826, no headliner originally, has one now since I replaced the Targa top 30+ years ago.

HAS front sway bar, looks like factory or dealer install. I know I didn't do it and I've had the car for almost 40 yrs.
