Found out today that while the shop was working on my 914-6, one of the flunky's remove & destoyed my sticker from the door-jam. I had made it Perfectly Clear that this sticker was not to be touched and to be protected during the restoration. But now it's gone. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
I was told that you can get them from Porsche? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I know that George sells replicas, but how do you get them perforated? Pissed & confused in Tampa, T.C. |

So..... I went out to do some measurements of the number grid off of the vin tag from the '70 914 in the driveway. The jamb had been repainted, but the vin tag was obviously taped off and preserved. Weird thing though is the vin # appears to be printed and not punched though the date code is punched. I'll post a pict in am. Were some vin tags printed and some punched, or do I have a faked vin tag?

Were some vin tags printed and some punched, or do I have a faked vin tag? So if you "click to enlarge" you can see the numbers are printed on this red 70 car. The white 71 car in front yard also has a printed vin. My 73 has no sticker (sandblasted off by yours truly). My other three cars I can't see the vins as they are in a cargo container with the drivers door near a wall. What year did the vins become perforated. For reference this tag measures 39mm tall by 135mm wide. Height wise the dots of the vin numbers are on 1mm centers. The dot size is .5 mm (printed). For punched sizes I'd need measurements from someone. |
