About 2 weeks ago I was offered a "914-6 GT". Well, I know that I can't afford a geniune GT, but I was interested and asked for more infos.
This is what I've got: It's a clone of the well known Tergal 914-6 GT, that raced the '71 Monte Carlo. The base car was a 1972 914 1.7 Liter which got a 2.4 Liter 911 T engine and the break system of a 911 RS installed. The car is located in Spain, Europe ... asking price is EUR 45,000 (currently about US$ 65,500) here are some photos: Attached thumbnail(s) |

Yes, I read that years ago as well. I even asked, on this site, what evidence he found that led him to that supposition. I don't recall an answer at that time.
However as I showed above, they do have 914/6 series body numbers, and very late 1971 series at that. We know that the 914/6 was substantially revised for 1972 with many more 914/4 features. The body numbers for 1972 MY were in the 132xxxx series. So as far as I am concerned the 916 got true 914/6 bodies. Now it is possible that some parts of those bodies had to be sourced from the 914/4 parts bins and reworked to use on the 914/6 bodies. |
