I just found these. They were taken at the LeMans Vintage race this year.
I need to add to my list of things to do before I die. Drive a 914-6 GT around LeMans. Paul Attached image(s)

QUOTE(tod914 @ Aug 2 2003, 05:22 PM) what kind of motors did the GT's have? I noticed they have a real high red line on the tac. It varied depending on who built the car and what the rules allowed. I think the Sonauto one that took the GT class in 1970 had a ~200 HP 2.0 liter twin-plug motor. The cars that ran in the Marathon De La Route had pretty much stock 2.0 liter 911S engines, to the tune of ~165 HP. I have read of ones that used 2.5 liter "built" engines, but don't know the kind of power they put out. --DD |

Was it possible to special order a 914/6 with a 2.0 S engine of that model year back then?

here's a complete list of German cities and their license plate abbreviations:
http://www.kennzeichen1.de/stadt.htm also, the less letters the abbreviation has, the bigger the city (number of residents). letter count is between 1 and 3, where 1 would be a large city and 3 would be a fairly small town. only exception (of course there has to be one!) is the cities that once belonged to the Hanse. they have a additional leading H, like HH for Hamburg ...
