A friend of mine is helping a widow sell her husband's race car. I told him I would pass this information on to 914world. Here is the description he sent me in an email:

Factory RSR front coil over Factory GT flars 951 x8 in the front and 911x9 rear Assco Racing cage additional chassis support- done by Dennis at Assco Racing Anaheim Ca Vellos 915 / 916 conversion, short 3,4 and 5th gears, and ZF LSD set at 60% locking factor Race seat from Subsport in Huntington Beach five belt race belts - driver, passenger 3.2 > 3.4 with Mahle 98 p/c, and Carrillo rods from the old Andial operation...case and crank mods.

"Not sure if the VIN number will tell if it's a authentic 6 chassis."
It will. If the vin starts with 914, it's a six chassis. @914xr75 |

I looked at this car a couple years ago and I just couldn't come up with the funds. It is a factory 6 starting with 9141xxxx as I recall and there were tons of parts included. A great deal for someone imo!

Patrick has decided not to show the car until he can locate the VIN and get it running.

I did visit the car today. It is a factory 6 and the VIN stamped in the fender and on the data plate are present. As stated above me, it is missing the Visible VIN plate. The car did fire, but would not idle. It is a nice platform and although would take some work to make streetable, it is a good car overall.
If they find the VIN plate, I could remain interested. |

There is no windshield VIN on european cars Sent you a PM question as well. The door jamb sticker was removed as well. There are generally 4 VIN locations on a 914; 2 front trunk, 1 windshield and door jamb with date of manufacture. 2 of them are missing on this car. The paint code plate was there, the car was originally white. L90E Alpine White. |

Are you sure L90E and not L 80 E?
I read L 90E as a 1980 color for porsche. There is no windshield VIN on european cars Sent you a PM question as well. The door jamb sticker was removed as well.

The paint over the little square plate is thick... with my cell phone light in the garage, that is what I saw. 9 could be 8 I guess. It could be L80 E as under the cowl it would more or less match Light Ivory versus Alpine White. It is still a more factory color under there where the roll bar passes through the vent ducting.
