Hi all,
Last week a coworker sent me a photo of a 911 without a VIN. Its a factory built race car that the owner bought new around 1970 (i think) and put the car away, never really drove it i guess. To look at the photo you'd think it was a nut and bolt restoration, but its all original! So, did Porsche actually build cars without a VIN in situations like this? I can't help but think that they had to put some sort of numbers/ID on it. Did they build any 914s in this same manner? Steve |

Earlier than '68 with adjustable lower ball joints.
Also headlamps and parking lamps are '67 or earlier. No body trim. Looks like a factory roll bar and period Dunlops. Parts sticker on front strut dust cover. Evidence of undercoat ? sound deadening ? What do the seats look look like ? The engine ? Co workers phone number ? |
