I just returned from a trip to Germany and was able to go to the Porsche Museum and look at both the 914 & 917 50th Anniversary displays. I was not impressed with the 914 display. One section of it was on the main floor and there were only a few cars displayed and they were hidden behind a half wall. The other section was in a service/restoration area between the souvenir shop and the open area snack shop. It had 6 or 7 cars on display, but you couldn’t access that area and the cars were very poorly displayed. Pictures had to be taken through the glass wall and the fluorescent lighting left a bit to be desired.
Anyway, I have the description of the cars in one photo and then the pictures of the referenced car follow. The link to my Google album follows: https://photos.app.goo.gl/7DmSqRBcKDZuJRxp6 Enjoy Steve If anyone is interested in the other display, the 917 display was awesome. The cars are obviously well lit and displayed where you can go right up to them and visit. I have the description of the cars in one photo and then the pictures of the referenced car follow. I have added a couple of additional pictures of non 917 cars at the end. The link to my Google 917 album follows: https://photos.app.goo.gl/F3iJspSqjK2q9sVT8 |

On my bucket list to visit one day. Thanks for sharing. Nice photos. Oscar Oscar, you really have to go one day. It was one of the best things I have done in my adult life. Steve, the collection of important 914 is superb. More even that was at the Luff show this year in importance of the cars and there were some great ones there. Surprising seeing a 916 and thinking it was a copy car. Yes, they were real! That ¼ wall is a spot that some of the most important cars have been viewed. A bigger surprise to me when they opened was I parked downstairs 25 ft. from the silver 914-8 that was a gift to Ferry Porsche. I was overexcited from that. I was only 60 at the time. Yes Steve, thanks for posting Cheers, Bob B |
