Thanx Jeff - 73 should match VROOM's 70 MY 914 & Brent's 73 too.
I don't recall when Bakersfield got their Porsche+Audi dealership - maybe 78?
- do you know Jeff?

I loved that 914S post/pic, but I haven't had a chance to do a post in there yet with Steve G's original 914S plates like that - real NJ & he's an "expert"! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
... I'm traveling thru 9/7, so am limited on my fun stuff! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Tom,
I think you're probably right about B-field getting their Porsche+Audi dealership in around '78. That's about as early as I remember it. We had Van Wyk's selling VWs in town though too--I know they had a VW-Porsche dealership (before those went away) on the central coast--like Santa Barbara or Ventura or something. Maybe they had some Porsches early on?

Brent, IIRC when VOA & Porsche started the seperate dealerships program, they wouldn't allow any VW dealers not willing to pony up the $150-250k to build a separate Porsche+Audi facility (could be on the same site/property - many/most were) to sell Porsches or Audis out of the VW facility after the change in 69/70.

Now maybe a BF VW dearler had an outside deal with one of the surrounding P+A dealers where they got a cut of the sales commission & could work a purchase at a distance as an arranger & have the car delivered to BF for the customer? But if so, then that would be an off the books kind of a thing.

VROOM - did you get what you needed for your 914's info? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
... now that we've hijacked your thread with related info for Brent, etc. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
