Porsche 914/6 GT

The Porsche 914/6 GT was a race car that Porsche built from the 914/6, the six-cylinder version of the 914, by adding a GT package that was recognisable by its box-like steel fender flares. It raced with several engine setups, including the basic 911 T engine and a converted Carrera 6 engine. A 914/6 GT entered in the 1970 24 Hours of Le Mans, driven by Claude Ballot-Léna and Guy Chasseuil, finished sixth overall behind only prototype-like cars such as the Ferrari 512 S and the Porsche 917 K, and a non-factory entry won its own class and the class above it. 914/6 cars also competed in the Targa Florio, the Monte Carlo Rally and at Daytona, and Walt Maas raced one in the IMSA series. The basic 914/6, a joint effort with Volkswagen, used the 2.0 litre flat six of the 911 T.
