Not mine...looks like it has some kind of slant nose conversion, maybe a Chalon. These kits were popular in the late 80's. 1973 was the best year for these cars and Riviera wheels are cool. This is probably worth the asking price.

Add a 911 bumper and valance and you can make a 914 attractive!

In reply to Woody:

IMO, the 911 bumper makes the front look like an early RX-7.

Wait. People think the 914 nose isn't the best looking aircooled Porsche?

I have to say, while the theory sounded good, I prefer the standard 914 nose (on a 914).

Hooray for wanting the easy thing for once.

Its probably long gone, but I can't get this out of my head.

I'm the opposite of you guys, I really like that 911 front bumper on there. The big rubber 914 front bumpers always made the car so ugly to me.

I wonder how many hours it is from Long Island to Knoxville?

I'm in Connecticut and decided that it's too far from me. Long Island is a pain in the ass.
