Wow, amazing photos of the model and thanks for posting. The 914 always has seemed to be a interesting German style car, similar to the German styling of the 60's to me.

Ah, heck what do I know stuck here is Suriname now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)

Hello Andy
The Klie clay model is existing today. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)
A 914-friend got the model as a gift from Mr. Klie as he bought his very early
1.7.
This clay model is a unique 914 how the Klie real 914 with many different parts
as the series.

Wilco (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)


Correction (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Today I had a telephone call with Norbert.
He told me that the Klie 914 is a 1970 model with first licence in 1973.
The car was more than two years in the Porsche test department and have
many different parts.
The side vents in the dash are allegeable with this Informations.
The dash part you can see on the attached photo is from the Klie 914.
If you have the DGVWPB (Andy) compare this with the photo side 25 in the
upper right corner.

Further Informations about the Klie 914 will follow.

looks to be the same car! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

DGVWPB, page 25, upper right hand corner, caption says (losely translated):

"The electronical Check-System was omitted from the production cars to keep the price down."

the car has some '73 features, dash sidevents, center console. i'm guessing this picture was taken somewhere after '73, after klie had "updated" the car ...

more pictures of the clay model ...

NOTE: on the second pic, you can see the normal single headlight versus the dual-headlight, which was only build once, on what is now Dr. Piech's red 914-8 ...

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif) Andy

PS: these pictures appear to be from the latest stages of the clay model as it is almost exactly the same as the current pictures wilco posted.
even the license plate matches! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

yes. electronical self-diagnostic system. for each circuit, there is a diagnostic light (above the knobs), when you turn on the ignition, the system runs a self test, and if a circuit fails the test, the warning light will stay on ...

So the Klie 914 was a factory test mule. Which factory??
Could be an early 1970 model? The VIN number and other chassis infomation would help us.
Fascinating!

Here is the maintenance book with the VIN

so it's a fairly late '71 ...

VIN: 471 29 10319

remember that europeans write the 1 like you guys write a 7, and the 7 always with a horizontal line, so don't get confused there ...

Engine #: 0080472

the dealer started this maintenance booklet on "03/19/1974", the owner is listed as "Heinrich Klie" ...
