914 & 917 50th Anniversary
Not sure where to post this so it can be moved if that's what he bird wants to do.
I just returned from a trip to Germany and was able to go to the Porsche Museum and look at both the 914 & 917 50th Anniversary displays. I was not impressed with the 914 display. One section of it was on the main floor and there were only 5 cars displayed and they were hidden behind a half wall. The other section was in a service/restoration area between the souvenir shop and the open area snack shop. It had 6 or 7 cars on display, but you couldn’t access that area and the cars were very poorly displayed. Pictures had to be taken through the glass wall and the fluorescent lighting left a bit to be desired. Anyway, I have the description of the cars in one photo and then the pictures of the referenced car follow. The link to my Google 914 album follows: https://photos.app.goo.gl/7DmSqRBcKDZuJRxp6 On the other hand, the 917 display was awesome. The cars are obviously well lit and displayed where you can go right up to them and visit. I have the description of the cars in one photo and then the pictures of the referenced car follow. I have added a couple of additional pictures of non 917 cars at the end. The link to my Google 917 album follows: https://photos.app.goo.gl/F3iJspSqjK2q9sVT8 Enjoy Steve |

Very cool, thanks for sharing it! I wish I could see it in person, but I'm a little too far away...

Nice shots, thanks. We were at the museum in April and saw the advertising of the coming. Went to Moto Classica at Essen and saw the Porsche Classic 914 display. It overlaps a lot of what you showed.

50 years of Porsche 914
It would seem that 914 enthusiasts around the world are organising better celebration events than Porsche.
I am not embarrassed to be a proud Porsche 914 owner as are many owners on this forum!
