Hey !

Did you ever know that a french coachbuilder made a proto based on a pre-production 914-6 ?

It was called "Murena" and it will be for sale at LeMans Classic this summer !!!

Look at here PORSCHE 914 GARAGE - 914 Murene by Heuliez ...

FASCINATING!!
So, a pre-production prototype? The engine number matches the range for a '69T and the "serial number" closely matches the Karmann chassis numbering system for 1970 /6's beginning with 130 albeit it has 7 digits instead of 6.
Looking at the additional photo's is an interesting interior and engine bay with the oil tank on the passenger side of the car.
Thanks for posting Phillipe. Keep us posted on it's selling price!

Actually, the image is flipped!!!

You can clearly see the non-moveable passenger seat on the left and the moveable drivers seat on the right.

Oil tank and battery are exactly where they are supposed to be, it's just that the image is flipped.

Now I feel at home.........
Thanks,
Don
