Is there any way to determine production date if sticker is gone and COA says information not available (boo)?

For a 914/6 the production # and the Karmann body # are just sequential numbers unrelated to a date.
For a 914/4 the production # and the Karmann body # are date related, but I believe them to be dates the body was welded up, and / or painted. They are certainly before the completion date. The system I discovered to break it down falls apart a bit in 1975 when the 914 was not the only car being counted by the system.
The best location to determine a completion date remains the compliance decal, and if it is gone then you need comparative data. I have made a study to help assist in this. BTW, the CoA and such generally provide the shipping invoice date
