Great looking car, what is the story on the black stripes? Did that come from factory or someone just added livery back in the day?

Erich the graphic designer for Porsche back in the day added them. Erich created so many of the cool advertising posters and literature brochures in the sixties and seventies.

And, how's this for prominence?

"...In the spring of 1972, 0233 was used as a camera car at the Nürburgring Nord­schleife to film a commercial introducing the 1973 914 2.0. The M471 shared the track with three 914-6 GTs, filming them as they circulated. It’s likely the car was in Strähle’s hands at the time. Photos indicate the black stripes and larger wheels had been added by then.."

I had a blast pointing it out to unaware attendees at Reeves C&C's. "...wanna see a super rare mid-six figure 914-6 M471?" "NO WAY!!" "Way..."

George notified me a few days ago that the car was going on the market. Hope it goes to a good home. I assume it will. Everyone knows what that car meant to me, so no need for me to repeat. Some may wonder if I ever recovered from seeing the car being driven away. It’s been nearly 2 years now since I sold the car. Well….. I must admit that I still quite often have that feeling like there’s something missing. And now seeing it for sale so quickly kind of ignited the emotions. Friends and people that know me well understand.
