QUOTE(87m491 @ Mar 10 2017, 12:39 PM)  A way around what issue? You have not said if your components are original to the car or not. If they are original AFAYK, give Porsche the info and get your COA. QUOTE(mountainroads @ Mar 10 2017, 11:56 AM) To carry this further, I could probably do a little research and come up with numbers close enough that they wouldn't question them, but that's not what I'm after. Anyone know a good way around this issue? Thanks in advance. - MR Sorry if I wasn't very clear: >> and explained I had the registration, VIN, etc, but the original engine and transmission were long gone, having been replaced by previous owners. << The original engine was bricked a long time ago and a previous owner decided he liked the feel of side-shifter transmissions better than tail-shifters. So those two items are gone and I don't have the numbers. I'd like those numbers to be on the document for historical purposes and out of curiosity, but Porsche doesnt want to provide unless I already know them. That's the issue I'm trying to get around. - MR |

Not only that, but if that information isn't put on a certificate, then it makes it easier for you to pass off a car as numbers matching since you'd have a certificate with omissions or blank fields. Seems like Porsche would provide that info on all certificates to protect future buyers. As an aside, is there a listing of ranges of engine numbers based on the year and month of manufacture? Anyone here tried to make one? just Mclovin |
