If I've missed this info somewhere obvious, I'm sorry. Does anybody have any info related to the first 914 off the assembly line? When did the 1st car roll off the line? Production car or otherwise. I know the two 914-8s were early. But did the 4s come first? Or 6s first?

Anybody know where VIN 4702900001 is? What about 9140430001?

Here's what I've found so far:

914-6s began production - July, 1969
Public unveiling of the 914 - Frankfurt, August 1969
"Significant 914-6 production" - November, 1969
First 914-4 U.S deliveries (limited) - January, 1970
First 914-6 European deliveries - February, 1970
First 914-6 U.S. deliveries - March, 1970

Credit: Excellence was Expected.

But apparently it is unclear if that was just production of parts, or assembly of 914-6s in July 1969.
