With so many 914 engine and transmission swaps and combinations, I was wondering if any 914's with automatic transmissions exist. Anyone know of one out there?

I saw this on the web. I have too much time today.

Dear Mr. Knutsson,

Thank you very much for your letter of October 10.
Referring to the latter and to our phone call of
October 9, we herewith inform you that of the type
914/6 Sportomatic we built a total of five cars for
experimental purposes.

Your car, which is a really rare one, was exported
to Sweden in February 1971.

In the hope of thus having been of some assistance
to you, we remain,

Sincerly,

Dr. Ing. h.c.F.Porsche

i.V.

Jürgen Barth

Porsche Panorama, October 1995, Page 84
"Gacek's 1993 certificate of authenticity from the factory indicates that there were 21 Sportomatics built in the 1971 model year" "An inquiry was directed to Porsche North America to confirm the correctness of these numbers and to shed some light on the 914/6 Sportomatic quantities. PCNA's answer was that there were, in fact, 21 914/6 Sportomatic cars built in the 1971 model year plus another four cars built in the 1970 model year for an overall total of 25 cars." "The majority of 914/6 Sportomatics went to European customers and it is not known how many are currently in the United States."

Not this again ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

I personally have over 15 VINs of 914s that came with sporto. Please don't perpetuate that 5 cars only myth.
