My 70 six was equipped with the optional chrome 15" steel wheels. The spare was not chrome.

Interesting...Does the spare date match?
What does the COA say?
I have not seen a 914/6 with a different finish spare.
Worth checking into.

I am guessing the dealer took the chrome spare from four cars to upgrade one for a quick profit. I hear Porsche dealers did things like this back then. Date stamp matches.

I can verify that some dealers did that. Rusnak did.
