was watching a great little documentary on the development of the wankel engine by mazda in the 1960s. this image came up at a point where discussion shifted to japanese focus on the US market and the foreign car "invasion". i grabbed a screenshot.

I note that the photo is captioned as Port of Baltimore, but the photo is named as Boston.
The two are about 400 miles apart and server two different Distributors. Port of Entry: UD = Baltimore, MD Distributor: VW Atlantic, Inc. Porsche Audi Division, Valley Forge, PA Port of Entry: UV = Boston, MA Distributor: VW Northeastern Distributor, Inc., Porsche Audi Division, Wilmington, DE |

Porsche Audi Division, Valley Forge, PA Port of Entry: UV = Boston, MA Distributor: VW Northeastern Distributor, Inc., Porsche Audi Division, Wilmington, DE the image name on the file of the 914 being unloaded is my typo dave. i created a jpeg file from a screen grab i made and mistakenly called it boston when i should have written baltimore.
