I don't remember ever seeing the factory assembly line for the 914. I have a factory prepared video of the 356, I've seen 911 stuff. I would really like to see what process was used to paint our cars.

If you check closely the 2nd car, it has side markers and euro signal lens. What was the market for that version?

I blew the photo up and it still looks like a white pipe to me.

I'm worried about the guy under it ... he doesn't have a friendly smile.

The second car in line is actually my '73 Phoenix Red car. That guy is using a screwdriver to scrape away some of the undercoating to give the rust a head start.

They did that for cars coming to North America.
