... question for the experts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

About the 914 picture, seeing the state of assembly, could these be all 6's coming from the Karmann factory awaiting for their 6 cylinders at Porsche factory?

yep

in the same state of trim/completion as a whole lot of 356, 911s and 912s that karmann built for porsche right through the 1960s. no different. same state of completion for delivery to porsche factory in stuttgart. reutter met some of the body shell and trimmed car demands and karmann the rest.

so much for all the real porsche guys that used to like sticking it up 914 owners for having a VW built car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
