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. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Loving the hot rod influenced scallops on the 914, and the vintage Bosch logos on the 911! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif)
