Hi Guys... I bought a '74 914 with Indiana title showing the same vin as on the windshield frame tag & the tag riveted to passenger side front wheelwell. Both of these tags are easily replaceable.
The vin sticker inside driver door jamb is missing & the number stamped on top of pass. wheelwell has been ground off ... gone ! The number stamped inside rear trunk floor on pass. side is a different number & is only 7 digits. Should this number be the same as vin ? So... so do I have a vin swap situation here... ? I can understand maybe removing the sticker inside the driver door jamb for a repaint, but to grind off the number stamped into the metal on top of front pass. wheelwell seems very intentional & for what purpose ? Is the number stamped inside rear trunk floor supposed to match vin on title ? Not completely sure what I have here... possible vin swap ? I feel the number in rear trunk floor may be key to solution. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) What say you ... Thanks... Terry in Az |
