Porsche certificate, for my 914 Options

[daytona]

Hi guys,
Can anyone tell me where I can get a certificate from Porsche showing all the particulars about my car? I decided to sell one of my 914s and I like to have a certificate showing it is a numbers matching car.
Thanks,
Bill.

Part of the issues with getting information may be the fact Karmann is no longer around. The records they have now may be minimal. You quickly forget we are now real Porsche’s so the priority in preserving documents may not have there.

There still is a lot of information that never made it out of a dealers file. I have the privilege of purchasing a car for restoration that was a German delivery and there was a lot of information you don’t normally see included. The car even had its own “passport.”

Ah yes . . . Carnet de Passages en Douane. Spent many hours and lots of $$ and dealt with many beaucrats & customs brokers at work arranging these documents over the years (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) What a joke. All because some Gov't or another is looking for import duties as you drive a car over an imaginary line.

Don't even get me started about the time I was held at US customs at about 2am when driving a car equipped with a "M" manufacturer plate back from Toronto area for work and the goober at the border had nothing better to do than to argue about paperwork at 2 am for his own entertainment only to let me go about an hour and a half later when he tired of the game.

I'm not bitter about it though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

It's cool that you have that document for your car though!
