Saw one in California in 1980, an aquaintance knew someone who got one stored in a barn for years, sold as a 914, cheap.

Same as a 914 except for the 916 badge and the two extra cylinders, not visible from outside.

It was probably a 914/6 and not a true 916. Only 11 916s were ever made, and as far as I know, only one was imported to the US - the only 916 to have factory air.

914/6 conversions were and are very popular amongst Porsche enthusiasts...
