I see some simularities between the 914 design and these other car designs.

But I also see alot of simularities between Mercedes Benz and alot of rice burners.

Following this logic that would meen that the Benz was designed by Hero Heto?

Following the bread crums It seems that a few people that were directly involved

in the design are saying that Porsche designed the 914 in-house. Why would they

lie? They don't seem to want to claim the 914 as a "Real Porsche" anyway.

Good pictures of the embryonic 914. This is better than X-files! The truth is right around the corner. What's a few more days when I've been waiting 30 years. Keep 'em coming Wilco.

Jeff,
the pics I posted today shows the same model.
But it was more than one times redesigned.
See also page 21 and 22 in the DGVWPB.

Don't hesitate to make your own inquirys
but I know you will have the same result.

Gugelot has been misspelled (gudelot) on the 914garage.com french website.
Now you can read gudelot on all the french websites ...
That's the way rumors and wrong informations spread all over the Web ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

By the way, this is one of the most interresting thread I ever read ! I love this place (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)

Fabulous information, Wilco! We've all learned a little bit more on the history of the 914's beginnings. You rate "member of the week" in my book.

Who are you!?! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

You come in here and between the clay model and the factory restoration photos, single handedly smoke virtually every post that's been put on these pages! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

(Andy, please translate the American English vernacular to Wilco... Wilco, it's a good thing)

WTFingG!!!
