about 15 yrs ago i looked at a "six" with a correct VIN in the Sac'to area - it had been in a flood - but my second inspection trip (with cash in hand) revealed it had later "4" dash vents, etc - and pulling up the carpets revealed that the front half of the car was a "4" sectioned onto the sixer back half

- it is not a "straight across cut", so you might not notice unless you really know these chassis'

- a bodyman friend who'd worked at Gus Mozart Porsche confirmed that this was commonly done in the Bay Area "back in the day" - it's the same process routinely used to shorten a VW pan for a Manx body back-when

I passed on it, even tho i only was looking for a racer shell

(i've seen sketchier "original-6-GT" cars at some high-end vintage venues - some even still wear their "4" fender ID - obviously htis is not a concern in some circles)

I have also seen a similar real six "tub" in Sac'to area that had the RF fender/quarter replaced - that "could" explain no-VIN or "erased VIN" in the fender liner

I don't know where either of those shells went

if all ya want is a race car - then it's worth considering if cheap enuf

but if ya want a 100-point resto, 100K resale value - take your chances & buy a set of steel stamps and a good MIG
