Mikey,
The PCNA-hired contractors that do the COAs were hired from the Ringling Brothers. You know far more about 914s than they do. The records are notoriously incomplete from the factory. Add to that fact the contractors refuse to correct obvious errors, despite their acknowledgement that the errors exist. (the last one I remember was the color code 99 being listed for "paint to match" rather than 98. I sent them a picture of the door-jam... they refused to budge. Color names and options codes have been listed that were never offered that model year.) Once upon a time, you could get the dealer to which the car was delivered. Now they refuse to provide that information citing "privacy" concerns. Also, they refuse to provide copies of the source data... so it's a total swag as to what you might get. After having been suckered into purchasing them in the past, I've now sworn NEVER AGAIN. It's a scam. -Rusty |
