Kind of has elements of some of the early design concepts.

Yes, it's in DGVWPB.

I'll have to dig through the book again, but it was a 3rd party mod, not factory.

Interesting, but those headlights look too low for legal height minimum.

Yeah...and butt ugly too.

Thanks Andy. I saw it on Facebook and had to ask. Not my cup of tea but interesting to say the least.

Headlights appear to be VW Audi units

From a 411 of the time ...

The sad part is the 914 appears to a be a -6

Looks like it was grafted on from a VW SP-2

This 914/6 GT was supposedly created by Glöckler

Posted by: gms Jul 16 2021, 08:59 AM

I am pretty sure it was reversed

Posted by: IronHillRestorations Jul 16 2021, 10:56 AM

Very Type4 VW looking

That was my first thought, 411/412 variant.

Either way,

a couple of years ago it got restored to original factory specs
