912 on the right.. I have an Albert Blue 911 S,from early 1970 MY production, so I am thinking of the second in that row...:rolleyes:

Edit: I see a lot of 912 engines on that rack, can't spot a 6 cylinder...:(

David,

I am always keen to download a genuine press picture but the 912 ceased in 1969 MY and the photo is reversed.
Keep them coming !

Cheers,
Dennis. :)

The bumperettes are without rubber pads, so the picture is from 1966 or earlier.

it looks like a black & white photo someone colorized.

Nice catch :) the titel of te picture was originally called "assembly line 1970" it seems they were wrong.

I noted the tail pipe was on the right in the photo, and as we all know 912 tailpipes are on the left!

Pretty cool photo...they used to do a run of one color so they didn't have to re-prime their spray guns between cars. Wonder if they did runs of 912s separate from 911s also to make assembly easier.

Quite a bit different from the sterile robots that make todays Porsches.

I think picture is flipped, look at right car tailpipe, and steering shaft on the left car, there are no smugglers box on RHD cars... :-)
