6 new rubber tits to hold the lower covers in place. They also require slight adjusting of the metal tabs in order to make the gaps uniform.

Gaps look good. This was a 6 hour project. I'm shure the factory workers were more efficient when installing the headlights.

ebay score. a NOS Bosch blue-tip antenna w/ keys for the 914 (and others I'm sure). These were probobly used on many cars of the period. Surprisingly, this car had a blue-tip on it, but it was trashed.

Holy Shit!! It's a roller. I think it's been five years since this car sat on its own wheels.

WOW! Extremely impressive! That is one of the most beautiful labor's of love I think I have ever seen. As previously stated, and obviously some of the most meticulous attention to detail I believe I have ever seen.
Congratulations on your project, you must be very proud. It looks like you are down to the short strokes.... New Years unveiling? |

These Fog Lights are the ones usually used on the early 911's with the thru-the-grill set-up. I know the 914 units are black, but I think these'll brighten up the front bumper area along with new chrome Fog Light grills. Hi, Amazing build a fantastic color choice. Can yo confirm the part number on the fog / driving lights. I would like to get the exact same style. I like how they fit so flush to the front. Regards, Grant |
