From a photo of the Weissach facility, in a 1981 928 brochure.

Looks like a fair number of Weissach engineers drove 914s to work in the 1980s. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

And look at all the colors and compare that to what you would see there today - black, silver, white, grey and maybe a red.

Could that be 914.233.0015 ???

The color doesn't match, but colors can change.

Love the comments "you have too much time on your hands...then posted comments. HA! Its like "where's Waldo for the 914.

Didn't see the smashed yellow car at first. Hmmm. Lots of interesting things in this photo the harder you look.

How about the orange one at the top left corner just in the shade in front of the yellow bug and the yellow one just to the left of pic's center above the roof stacks (next to the 2 orange 911's?).

Obviously this is a Photoshop job! How do I know? Not a single 914 is on jack stands, therefore it can't be real...

Seriously, pretty cool photo, thanks for sharing.
