hi all,

last weekend there was the big international 914 meeting in Belgium

I didn't attend, but I just found this link to 400+ photos on flickr

Interesting that most of the cars lack hood Emblems and side stripe PORSCHE stickers where as in the US we embelish and add the stickers. Not that there is anything wrong with that either way.

Great pics, thank you

I wonder how much of that is due to the fact that they were VW Porsche over there and not just Porsche like over here?

it was a four day event

here are the official promo pics:

You missed the meeting once again !!! ...
Next year no excuses !!! It will take place in austria. I expect to meet you at last !...

Is that Tintin in a 914?
The add is cooler than the event, at least for me.
This gets added to my Tintin collection

> Next year no excuses !!! It will take place in austria.

That looks like fun. Maybe I'll try and make it over...

Wow! I'm so jealous! Awesome photos!

I'de love to ship my car over there for a month or so, attend that event, and just do a European road trip!

Why just not try to rent one ? ...

Gust, Thank you for sharing! It really shows that 914s are being loved internationally! God Bless!!!

That is the best group of pics from a 914 event that I have ever seen. Cool variations, countryside and colors. Thanks a for sharing a fantastic event with us!

WOW

Neat event with cars ranging from box-stock to fairly modified. It looks like everybody had a fantastic time with gorgeous weather and beautiful scenery. The 914 looks so natural in a European setting, whether it be France or Germany or Austria or Italy or Belgium or....

Thanks Gust for posting and sharing this with us.

i know, i know ...

there is still a lot of work on my teener to do before I could take such a big tour



that's my plan - I'm working on it

I have to disagree. Going through the images again, there's a whole raft of pictures of cars with hood emblems ..... at least 15 different cars with the Porsche crest on the hood. And there are plenty of other pictures of Porsche side stripes, trunk emblems, rear reflector panels, etc. Comparing this group to the cars that attended WCR 2012, there were more cars with the Porsche crest in Belgium than there were in Monterey.

914's must be more reliable over there. I didn't see one tow truck amongst all those teeners.

Wasn't there one on a trailer?

What a cool event!

The pics got me to wondering about the differences between US and Euro cars when it comes to bumpers. Did the Euro cars get the tits in '73 & '74 and then the BUBS in '75 & '76 or was that strictly US?

I can't help but notice how much cleaner the lines of the car are without the front side marker lights.

Euro cars didn't have the tits at all - neither front nor rear

the 75 model came with the big rubber bumpers

no 76 models in Europe

Hood emblems were a dealer addition popular in the US .
No 914 ever left the factory with a hood emblem.

Friday evening to Monday lunchtime

see you there

Very cool event & lots of beautiful teeners. I just grew my background slide show significantly.

The only thing missing is the sound of all the wonderful 914s!

Anyone else notice the black 914 on page 3 line 6, third pic in that row. Looks like it was made into a convertable. Lots of nice cars and beautiful countryside. Thanks Gustl!
