When did Porsche abandon the rear valance with the porthole, I have a late 1970 914-6 (7/70) that has the shorter notched one that I believe is original to the car. Also interior back pad and seat vinyl trim is heavier grain which I know was for 1971.

I agree it is crucial to the appearance of a Six and would install one if the car is not really driven. The snow plow traps heat and that is not good for these motors. I am running the later short valance on my Six. I think (OK, I know I will get assaulted by the GT crowd) they look unfinished without a rear valance of some type. The shortie finishes the rear despite it not being the snow plow. Unfortunately my cars snow plow was missing from my Six when I bought it. If I had one, I would of course keep it as part of the car.
