914World.com _ Originality and History _ that '70s show

Posted by: 1970 Neun vierzehn Jun 2 2020, 01:24 PM

I posted these last month on the "Garage" Forum, but should have posted them here because these photos are indeed history.

The photos are from Cincinnati, Daytona Beach, Orlando, Natural Bridge Kentucky, and the Great Smokey Mountains.

Thanks for sharing. Fair number of steel wheels and hub caps. That look is growing on me.

the photos are gold.
un-customized 914s in their zeitgeist - just post moon landings.

thanks for posting them.

I like the colour of the car at the front in the middle picture, what colour is that?

I am guessing here, but that color could be "Gold Metallic"/color code 88 for a 914/6.

Right after this autocross in late summer 1978, as I was backing into our garage, the passengers side rear console broke. Shortly thereafter, a PCA friend and I trailered
my 914 up to Stoddard P+A in Cleveland for the repair. In Cincinnati that year, neither of the two PORSCHE dealers had a clue as to how to fix and correctly align the rear end of a 914.

Great pics. Looks like the 1978 Aspen PCA Parade? We were there too. I was a kid. Met Peter Porsche though. My parents competed in the Parade that year with our 914/6. Most of our pics are on slides.. somewhere....
