Auction Description:
*Rare and powerful original six-cylinder example of the 914
*Matching numbers and Canary Yellow from new
*Highly original and well-preserved example
*Offered with Porsche Certificate of Authenticity
Completed at Porsche in April 1970, this rare 914-6 Targa was finished in Canary Yellow over a black leatherette interior, just as it appears today. The powerful six-cylinder Porsche was prepared for the US market, and equipped with fog lights, a leather wrapped steering wheel, a center arm rest and chrome disk wheels shod on Pirelli tires.
The 914-6 presents in very original condition throughout with a largely original interior, and an exterior believed to have had just one repaint several years ago. The car is listed in the 914 Registry, and it has been noted in the past that the odometer reading of less than 27,000 miles is in fact the car's original mileage. Fitted with Fuchs wheels, the 914-6 retains its matching numbers, six-cylinder engine, and is offered with the Porsche-issued Certificate of Authenticity.
