Hello forum,

my name is Franz and I sign in to 914 world today. Sorry, my English is not so good.

I collect information on 914/6 and search information on 914/6 GT used by Porsche Salzburg in competition. I not can find it on the internet. I look for pictures, VIN, etc.

Thank you very much for the help & greeting from Salzburg

Franz

Much better than my German.

Good luck in your search for history!

The only thing that I can find is that Peter Peter and Harald Ertl, both X- formula Vee drivers entered a 914-6 gt from Porsche Salzburg in several races in 1970. I cannot find any photos.

Thank you, that is good. I reed somewhere that Porsche Salzburg has two cars/ 914-6gt. But I forget where...

Thank you for the nice welcome in 914world!

Hey Franz,

... from the neighbourhood


you're right, Salzburg Alpenstraße had two factory GTs in Rallye trim, both registered street legal at the same time
license plates as follows: "S 28.061" and "S 29.917"
they had several race starts in the early 70ies, for example both cars entered the "Österreichische Alpen Rallye 1970"

here's a pic from this event:

both cars seem to be lost without a trace ...

Hallo Gustl,

greeting to you, funny to see others from Austria.

Thank you for the picture, I have not see this one. I have some questions, maybe you know answers:

- Do you know the colors?
- Who was the driver for 2. car? Dave says Ertl and Peter for 1. car.
- Is it possible that one or two cars crash in competition?
- Do you have VIN for this cars?

Thank you & greeting to Tirol

Franz

so,

You located a crashed 914/6 GT that the owner claims is one of these cars?

There is a VIN sheet that should be on this site in a few places, but I suspect Gustl or Andy has this information to show where every GT know has ended up.

Good luck with your search.
This site may have some clues.

Hello Rich,

I have not located this cars, and I don't have this much money for gt. I only have interest because they was from my town.

I find pbase, but not many information on Salzburg gts.

Franz

curious,

Have you asked the original dealership owners?

signal orange, when delivered to Salzburg Alpenstraße


everything's possible, but not known
they didn't finish the "Alpenrallye 1970" due to technical problems
no info about issues on later rallyes

years ago, I already asked at Porsche Alpenstraße, former mechanics from that area, I even tried it at the authority of Salzburg if anything is known about the license plates ... no luck
I spent a valuable amount of time in the search of these two cars - and gave up without success


I only can encorage Franz to try it too ... maybe we could get a hit

thank you for the answer. It seem Gustl has checked and asked already... I ask at Alpenstraße, same answer... That why I post on 914world.

Hallo Franz,

Grüße nach Salzburg, I heard this story in Bremen Classic Motorshow about one of Salzburg GTs: a Porsche man in Bavaria found one of the Salzburg GTs in very poor condition. I don’t know which one. Only half the car, not the front with VIN. I was curious and asked my friend how to confirm the car without VIN. He said from some number in trunk, with this number you can somehow find the VIN. I said maybe someone just write this number in trunk. He said he doesn’t know, but could be possible. I asked him how much of a car must remain so you can say it is still that car... I have a GT bumper

Sorry, only a story, no pictures or proof.

Heinz

Servus Heinz,

first of all:


the number in the rear trunk would be the chassis number

you can't "calculate" the VIN from the chassis number, but you could estimate a "VIN range" at least

would it be possible to get the chassis number from the car/wreck or however you'd call it ?

it should be 13xxxx

Gustl

Hallo Wolfgang,

many from Austria here Thank you for the welcome.

I do not know this chassis number or the VIN, I have not seen it and the man in Bremen did not tell me, maybe he doesn't know. He said there are some dokuments/lists where you can check this. I think he said the owner is in 914 club, but I'm not 100% sure...

Regards

Heinz
