Yep, they swapped the vins.
Its either a 75 or 76. Nobody in there right mind would swap the front and rear clips to get the bumper shock mountings from a 75 or 76. They also didn't make a 1.8 motor in 71. I would ask to see a picture of the chassis stamping in the trunk on the passenger side. I live in Laguna Niguel. I think I have seen that car around. |

Run, run for your life! A California DMV VIN change will have a plate riveted on the left door post, and it will have an assigned number with NO relationship to Porsche numbers. The Cap'n
