Do you have any pictures of the 914 that was on actual display at the 1969 show?
I only have the one gray photo from DGVWPB. I'd be really interested in any additional photos of that car. I have a suspicion in need to confirm (or not) ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

The green car that is the "cover shot" for the second video looks like black steelies with wheel covers.

It's not without comments about the car: all things we now take for granted like the difficult access to the engine etc. And priced @ 12,000 DM, it was not considered to be cheap.
Funny moment when the 914 overtakes the Karmann Ghia! @ Kaeferfreund: Great avatar! Should make a great T shirt as well! Menno |

Interesting. It is a 4 cylinder with Fuchs. FAKE FUCHS. Ugly hub caps. I like the euro front blinker. The small clear lights came on vs the whole yellow. Looks like D-jet. I thought the euro cars had carbs. Notice the edit when the guy did not get the Targa all the way in or secured? Then tried to close the trunk. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) And the fog lights blinked when that car passed. |

Here is a picture of a 914 that should be the same as the one shown in the film No, not the one in the film. I mean the one that was on actual display at IAA. The /6 up on stage behind the ropes. It may be yellow but it's hard to tell from a black/white picture. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
