914/6s at 1970 factory tour Options

In a couple of pix those look like fake Fuchs hubcaps, not real wheels. And yes the ride height seems all wrong on several of the cars. I've seen that cover on the gas tank etc before- looks nice, should have made production IMHO.

Nice to see one with the pepita seats. I was lucky to get those on my 9/70 build and I put towels on the seat bottoms to help preserve them. Still look decent after nearly 54 years!! Not sure I've ever seen another set of original pepita inserts on a 914...

this one has the most jacked ride ht i have ever come across.
karmann stand at paris in late 1973. was also at frankfurt a month before.
dug these up for mr. b regarding origins of the 74 LE.
karmann was doing austin powers 25 years ahead of mike myers with the stripes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
and someone screwed up when they went over to the rear spring rack on the assembly line.

its possible this was some kind of deliberate static display trick to make it look like it was coming off the lights hard in a street drag in downtown stuttgart. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
