the Last Six, looking for more info Options

[Johny Blackstain]

I was searching through my collection of teener photos & came across this one. It's a shot I found years ago & was attached to an article on the pictured 914. It caught my eye instantly, since I'm not used to seeing flares on a car with those bumpers. At age 51 my memory is starting to fail me, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) , But I remember reading it was a one off special order for a long time customer. Knowing myself I probably read this in either VW/Porsche magazine or European Car magazine.

The car was supposed to be the very last six that ever came out of the factory & it was made after 914-6 production had stopped. Judging by the photo I will also presume that it was made during a time when 914 production was winding down.

A few things I've noticed about this car aside from euro lenses & flares w/ late model bumpers, is a lack of chrome (note the vent window post, front windshield gasket & trim pieces on the sail panels). Also of note are the "flared LE" front spoiler & the drivers mirror.

Anyone know anything else about this car or have any other photos?

I don't know if this is the real deal or just a copy. Front flares look a little too square but maybe it's just the lighting.

With 4 lug rims I think it's a copy. Also appears to have an Ansa exhaust in one of the shots so I doubt it's a six. Best guess is it's a clone attempt because when you cycle through the pictures, the shot of the last six is mixed in there. I do like the flared LE spoiler in the front (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
