we wait impatiently

just got his answer:

tell me all the mystirious parts on this yellow GT (?) you can find, and he will ask the owner directly about them
due to the fact, that he's in Germany and the owner of this car is in spain, he'd like to check this out at once, so find as much as possible

1.) "wrong" ignition
2.) black headlight surroundings

what else?

engine mount ?
i.e. are the /4 engine mount present, and how is the /6 engine mounted to the frame

The thing about the steering column, in my mind, is that going from the /6 column to the normal /4 column would entail a number of changes: it would mean changing the steel support structure that is welded to the frame, changing the wiper motor (or at least changing the wiring) changing the windshield washer mechanism to an air-activated one (or at least changing the wiring) changing a lot of the wiring for the ignition, the turn signals, the high beam switch etc . . .
For all those reasons, I suspect that if this car has the /4 steering column, it left the factory with it.

The obvious things for me would be the VIN, chassis #, and paint code from all the usual locations. The location of the chassis # from the rear trunk is also important; center or right hand side. The number on the underside of the dash would also help. If the chassis # is on the Karmann badge, does it match the trunk floor. Does the VIN match in all locations.

Does the passenger seat have fixed or adjustable position?
Is the dash early or late type?
Is the bracket for the booster fan in the engine compartment present?

This car looks like it has the late style striker plate for the door latch.
The steering wheel looks like it might be a '74 imitation leather wheel.
I notice it doesn't have the undercoating on the upper front shock mounts.
The passenger side threshold rail looks like it might be black plastic instead of aluminum. This would nicely match the black headlight surrounds.

Another thing to check would be to see if the jack mounts are located on the drivers side rear of the trunk instead on the forward wall of the trunk.

those were certainly repainted when they added the 100L tank and welded on the tabs for the strut-brace ...

Damn Eric, you must be totally bored to dig up a thread that old.

After all the questions, the owner found out he was ripped, set off on a journey to find the culprits and was never heard from again.
