I have a 914-6 project at Rothsport kinda in limbo.
Chassis's been dipped. But front fenders are toast. Especially, the inner support to the cowl.
But after closer inspection this has had a front clip repair job. But it has both a 914 xxxx vin number up front and a Karmann number in the trunk.

Is this a combo of 2 914-6's ?

You can tell it spent its early life as a race car with a Ginther type windshield.
I can see the windshield frame splice.
This chassis has been in storage at Rothsport for 15 plus years.

Any history on the chassis number ?

The KARMAN 13xxxx number in the CENTER of the trunk is correct for a 914-6
It can be decoded to determine the build date of the chassis. . Porsche entered
the 914-043 xxxx number when the car was built.

A 914-4 had the Karman number on the right side of the trunk

A search should find u all the info
