the drivers seat bracket is different on the early 914 (both 4 and 6) up until about January 1970 from what I have seen. the adjustment handle is straight the later version has additional bends.

The car was sent to Porsche development, the earliest owner I can find said the factory installed the flares.

The clips that held the carpet over the fuel tank are still present. #11 still had the carpet when Tony bought the car.
This is a picture from the 1969 Frankfurt car show where the 914 was introduced. there is a strong possibility that the silver 914/6 was #12 |

I wonder about the material and it's backing. It looks pretty flat. Maybe it had a backer board and not just carpet material. |

Do we have a "drop the mic" emoticon.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)? Awesome Glenn. Glad you have it. Have fun with it. |

It is always exciting to find out new information but very disappointing how little documentation is left at the factory about the 914s. When I visited the archive in 1997 I left them more 914/6 GT information than I found there. |

True, true. Lot of blanks on those forms which make restorations a challenge in many cases. But yours says PORSCHE FACTORY USE! Way cool. Seems very likely it's the one in the photos. What a journey it's had!

I feel confident that the engine 640 0012 and the transaxle 750 0014 are the originals

the VIN plate is the large steel one, this is consistent with #11

the center visor bracket is also unique, the bracket is solid and the posts are splined on the end.
