I was doing research years ago on the Alfa wagon, we stumbled across one of the 12 ever built. They were support vehicles for the Factory race team, they built 3 a year. I found this pic of one towing a 914, presumably at the track.

Cool pic. That 914 looks like it was rode hard and put away wet.

Dang, an Alfa towing a Porsche... you don't see that everyday.

That looks like it could be one of the Monte Carlo 914 GT rallye cars.
Just looking at the placement of the stickers. Neat pic!

I did for a couple of days, I tracked down the original owner, a former Alfa Dealer, who had bought it at the Factory. He quickly bought it back and put it with it's brothers, he already owned 3 of the 12 ever made, but this was the only one he had bought from the Factory, he was very excited.
This was the guy I bought it from, AKA Mr. Alfa!

in fact, it's 914.143.0139 (Monte Carlo 1971, #7) when it was used as training car for the Targa Florio 1971

The best part about the deal was the car was deep in Brooklyn, Sheepshead's Bay, I call the guy up and was talking about the car, but asked if it was really a wagon, I had never heard of the wagon. His response was soooo Brooklyn,
"Well, I'm FUCKIN' lookin' at it!"

Great guy, great car.
