matching numbers, porsche 914 vehicles for sale claiming matching numbers Options

Thank you for helping me work through it. I think i got it. Starting with Wikipedia, the Title VIN and number plate under the front windshield. If your stamped in vin numbers on the right front top fender well and your rear trunk floor just behind your right rear tail light housing are matching your driver door sticker VIN your golden. Now you just need to make sure your engine numbers match the year specified on samba's engine code list. Then your transmission numbers need to match to the year specified by the list provided by Blue sky motorsports chart for the year of the vehicles vin. All of this can be fabricated into any car by a good HACK ! This would qualify as ( Matching Numbers ) I think so ? Thoughts please.

A COA will note if the VIN matches the engine number number it left the factory with. It will not tell you what the matching engine number was if it doesn't match. I think I saw one person who had a transmission match noted on their COA (could be wrong about that), but normally is noted as "Not Confirmed" at least for 914/4s. When I inquired about that on mine, I was told that PCNA doesn't have records for transmission numbers. My COA does not list the chassis number although both VIN and chassis number are stamped into the chassis of the car.

The information the COA gives about optional equipment is notoriously bad. Mine simply states USA base equipment even though it has the sport package with Fuchs, center console, and factory sway bars. They at least got the interior color correct.
