Total shot in the dark here but wondering if anyone happens to know the whereabouts of an original six that my father turned into a track car in the 80s. It was originally white, then painted all black and flared, and when it left his ownership around 2005 or so it was yellow and black. It was set up for HSR and had an imsa air dam. 2.7 powerplant if i remember right. Was definitely a track only car with cage and fire suppression, etc. Sold out of the Charlotte NC area. My dad passed a couple years ago but he really loved driving that car and I am curious if it is still around.
I am going to see if I can track it down through paperwork but I thought I would ask here too. Thanks |

If it is a 914/6 (as opposed to a -6 conversion) I might have information.
I run the 914/6 Registry so I can look up cars by the owners last name. Send me an email |

Send me an email I thought Larry Lee managed this Glenn...you have it now? Larry has his list and I have mine but we do share data along with the German 914/6 Club. In 1992 I started tracking sixes in my area (I was looking to purchase one and didn't want to look at cars twice). I started a database in 1994 which I entered advertisements from my newly acquired complete Porsche Panorama collection as well as Excellence Magazine and Hemmings. I was tracking the 914 race cars, M491s and M471s so the database seemed a perfect container. I started collecting pictures in about 1998, in about 2000 I place a summary of each car on the internet. Today I have 1768 unique VINs 914/6 Registry |
