Looking for any period (or modern) photos of 914 race cars with interesting colour (sorry, color...) schemes, stripes etc, etc.

Love the look of many of the older 911 racers from the late 1960s, 1970s, but not seen so many on 914s...

Dig out those archives!

PS - there's a beer in it for you when you make it across the Pond to deepest Cornwall.

Loving the hot rod influenced scallops on the 914, and the vintage Bosch logos on the 911!


I have that page bookmarked - some great stuff there!

anything painted like a marlboro packet is tops in my book.

(but they never did a 914 that way )
if there is one out there i'd be copying it.

Some positive outcome from the Pandemic period. Had time to refinish the 914.
