We are looking for owners who bought their 914 original from the showroom when it was new. PM me if your the original owner of your car (or are related to the original owner).

We'd like to find at least one of each year the car was made. A photo of your car at the dealer would be ideal. But a period-correct photo will work.

Steve I can send over a pic of my '74, from '74, with me at the wheel: but slightly modified only after 3 months of ownership (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) PM me your email and I'll send over for view.

This was my 74 914 2.0 shortly after I bought it from Becker VW porsche-Audi in Champaign, IL. The sunflower yellow color has faded considerably as this was a digital copy of an old Slide.

We have a few. But we're still looking for original owners. PM me if your the original owner of your car or the relative of the original owner.

Our next door neighbor is an original owner of his 914. I don't know if he'd want to log into World or not. Want me to see if he'd give us a picture?

Steve: Are you looking for original owners who still have their cars or just original owners who have neat original pics? I bought my '70 direct from the dealer in April '70, but sold it later.

Bought this 70 914/6 from Forest Lane Porsche and drove the wheels off it for a few years. Then BMWs became the in car and I traded it in on a 320i. Now I Kick myself daily.
