If only one could step into this photo and take a look around, maybe buy some parts from the part bins at 1970 prices too.

I made a factory tour in 1971 and made pictures of the assembly line. You walked along the line and stood next to the workers. I saw a 914/6 on the line among the 911's but cannot find any pictures of it. Don't know why I didn't take a picture because I drove a 914/6 at the time. I did get a picture of a 914/6 motor in the engine assembly area though.
The 914/6 bodies were built by Karmann along with some 911's, painted and shipped to Zuffenhausen for final assembly. I worked for the US Army Post Engineers in Zuffenhausen in 1971 and often saw truckloads of Porsche bodies on the way to the factory. |
