Some 914's. Some 911's.

Very cool--thanks.

Great pictures! I think Piech is in one of those... nice collection of 914's on rollers!

Wish I could find the pictures from when my wife and I toured the factory in the spring of 1982. Unfortunately I remember it well as it was just after Gilles Villeneuve had his fatal accident at Zolder...

... question for the experts

About the 914 picture, seeing the state of assembly, could these be all 6's coming from the Karmann factory awaiting for their 6 cylinders at Porsche factory?

yep

in the same state of trim/completion as a whole lot of 356, 911s and 912s that karmann built for porsche right through the 1960s. no different. same state of completion for delivery to porsche factory in stuttgart. reutter met some of the body shell and trimmed car demands and karmann the rest.

so much for all the real porsche guys that used to like sticking it up 914 owners for having a VW built car.

i though it might have been mr piech too, it sure looks like him doesn't it.

Very nice indeed. Many thanks.

Those all must have been 914-6's in the photo since they were on moving carts awaiting their engines and transmissions to be installed, instead of on an assembly line.

Very cool, thanks much for sharing.
