Yep.

that flicker link is fascinating.
thanks for posting.


picked up another esoteric detail of difference between proto and production cars.
....as a result of the windscreen research we did a few years back.

quarter window on doors has the porsche P in a triangle emblem on the sekurit glass.
up near the apex of glass.
logo as per 911s of that era.

everything i had on file for all years of 914 production (including 6s) had the VW logo on the side and rear glass (and on most of the windscreens if they had the kinonglas windscreens). (later in 75 and 76 they added audi rings to the VW logo. none of the cars seem to have had the Porsche logo on the glass unless you got a sigla windscreen, which some cars got for certain months of production.

To be honest it’s an absolute shame that the car has not been purchased from the owner and at very least preserved.

From what I remember reading, the owner wants over $200K

With a BHCC 914/6 vin going for $38k, $200k for a one of a kind prototype may not be terribly far off. Not really one of a kind, (maybe one of four?) but you certainly can’t even buy the others that Porsche owns. Somewhat surprised someone hasn’t stepped up.

^^ the "owner" died and his son finally sold it. I'm hoping the new owner will post a pic of it safe and sound....

bummer about 914club. It had a bunch of useful threads and stuff.

I would be willing to do it...with Georges help.
BUT...

so many BUTS...first off, lots of legal.

Kevin, You look like ....WTF

My WAFPORS posture.

The rear bumper might have been replaced with a USA specification bumper as part of the DOT import modifications. Would be interesting to compare with the known prototypes that have never left Europe.
