I have just now come to find out that there were several special 914s in display on the Karmann stand at the 1973 IAA show in Frankfurt that I have never seen before. My 914 LE website documents Ludwigsens EWE account of what is described as a Bumblebee at the Paris IAA 1973 show, but the following cars are different. I just received this original photo of the 914 cars in Frankfurt…look how cool they are for all you 914 history buffs…
The red car also appears in the Ludwigsen book as having been displayed at the Paris IAA 1973 show. The USA car also appears in monochrome in the Das Grosse VWP Buch. The remaining cars seem to be for France, Germany and Britain. These display cars seem to have been made up in graphic themes depicting the major 914 markets…that’s all I can surmise. Note that they all appear to be euro-equipped 914s, and some have engine grille lettering and some have graphics even on their rear trunk lids…All USA 1974 914s (except the LE cars), came with targa bar vinyl as displayed here FWIW.
