All I got was strawberries can make you hallucinate and imagine 914-6's are popping up all over the place, but when you try to remember, there is no proof.

..legit conversions...
At the risk of opening a can of worms, isn't this a bit of an oxymoron??
I believe the initial question was regarding 'original' -6's. Seems like I should need more than a small plate and several square inches of steel with numbers stamped into them to be 'legit'.

Someone recently posted somewhere on a 356 aluminum Gmund coupe that just won a prize a Pebble Beach, & it's owned by Peter Porsche. The whole car is new, but it qualifies as a restoration because they transferred the VIN & chassis numbers, as well as the matching numbers engine. So if as stated before you have a trashed six with all it's original stuff & you move it all over to a 4 chassis, numbers & all, it's a legitimate six. Not original, but restored & legitimate.

Scooter was being flippant.

AA certain someone was trying to do this on ebay and was met with aa total shitstorm on this board.
Sorry I stutter, I'm Canadian eh-eh....

Original only happens one time. Those conversions are still a dressed up 4.

Pete from RD said they may have enough panels for a "body in white" in a few years. So if you stick a couple of plates on one is it a real /6?

What does real mean? I agree w/ Joe in that original is original only once. Fully restored is no longer original, but it appears to be taken as legitimate by the car collector culture. Then you have my LE- unrestored, maintained, 48k original miles but it's been repainted- what do you call that? This is turning into a discussion over vocabulary & grammar.

"Then you have my LE- unrestored, maintained, 48k original miles but it's been repainted- what do you call that?"

Is that what a survivor is? And I seem to remember an article about an unrestored, moderately rusted Ferrari (no re spray) sold for multiple millions, even with massive miles. No completely restored, rebuild needed. Just sell as a drivable barn find. But first drive it as it was meant to be driven when it was first built. No garage queen, just a used, but rare, Ferrari. In 15-20 more years, your LE will be worth big bucks just as it looks today, even with 148,000 miles. Enjoy it as the Porsche builders made it to be enjoyed.

"This is turning into a discussion over vocabulary & grammar."

I went to a public school, proper English grammar was a foreign language elective that I did not take.
