I am interested in obtaining a Certificate of Authenticity, but would like a little information about how to go about getting one. Sorry if this topic has already been done, but the search system seems to think I am the first one ever to think of this...
Since it will say Porsche on the top will it cost more than my car is worth? Will the CoA actually have any useful information on it? Thanks in advance for all the help. On a side note- since this is a topic about the history of my car, will it be deleted and forced to be started in the originality and history section? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/KMA.gif) |

Thanks for the information!
On a random side note, despite my screen name the CoA will be fore my 1974 MY car that I am keeping, not my 1970 MY car that I am scrapping. |

QUOTE(70_914 @ Mar 7 2010, 10:04 AM)  Thanks for the information! On a random side note, despite my screen name the CoA will be fore my 1974 MY car that I am keeping, not my 1970 MY car that I am scrapping. Oakie-doakie! Same issues on 74 MY - except if yours is a 2.0 - starting in 74 MY or late 73 MY, Porsche US decoupled the full Appearance & Performance Group sets of options, & started charging extra for them as add-ons, & same was true on 1.8's as for the 73 1.7s (i.e.: you could add them as packages &/or individual items) - so you're COA will need to reflect what actually came on your 914. The downside for 73 2.0's (as with other Porsche special package models such as the 911 Carrera RS), is that the COA doesn't state what optional items were "included" with that model. So it's a double edged sword. I'd suggest that to start with you take pix of your VIN & Build Date door jamb label/tags/plates, Karmann Chassis No./Paint Code, Engine Case & Transaxle case Nos. to attach to your COA app, so maybe it will save you going back & forth with them on those items. See Jeff Bowlsby's classic 914 website (above) for the plates/labels/stickers locations & other great info. Also p914.com has good info too. BTW - cute Baby - if that's yours!
