I didn't think my reply was that mystical. Certainly not as mystical as a 914 electrical system.I was just trying to say it seems like the more you look for something the more you will find it. Like when the d.c. sniper witnesses said the sniper shot from a white van. white vans started popping up everywhere. Season's greetings to all and to all a good night!!!!

seriously though, isn't there a guy in Atlanta that sells -6 VIN tags for legit conversions ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) ..legit conversions... At the risk of opening a can of worms, isn't this a bit of an oxymoron?? I believe the initial question was regarding 'original' -6's. Seems like I should need more than a small plate and several square inches of steel with numbers stamped into them to be 'legit'. |

Someone recently posted somewhere on a 356 aluminum Gmund coupe that just won a prize a Pebble Beach, & it's owned by Peter Porsche. The whole car is new, but it qualifies as a restoration because they transferred the VIN & chassis numbers, as well as the matching numbers engine. So if as stated before you have a trashed six with all it's original stuff & you move it all over to a 4 chassis, numbers & all, it's a legitimate six. Not original, but restored & legitimate.

AA certain someone was trying to do this on ebay and was met with aa total shitstorm on this board. Sorry I stutter, I'm Canadian eh-eh.... |

Not original. Original only happens one time. Those conversions are still a dressed up 4. Pete from RD said they may have enough panels for a "body in white" in a few years. So if you stick a couple of plates on one is it a real /6? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

What does real mean? I agree w/ Joe in that original is original only once. Fully restored is no longer original, but it appears to be taken as legitimate by the car collector culture. Then you have my LE- unrestored, maintained, 48k original miles but it's been repainted- what do you call that? This is turning into a discussion over vocabulary & grammar.
