  1. Grusse, thank you very much for your very informative reply about our 1969 Porsche. I will slowly go through the car and photograph all details and get all numbers. I will also write down all engine part numbers, since engine is partially apart. The more we learn about the car, the more interested we (me and my 18 year old son) become in wanting to learm even more and realize that while maybe not a purist collector car, it will become a fun car to drive and representative of early modification work to upgrade a car for fun local racing events. Many Thanks for all your effort and information that you have shared with us. I'll keep you posted on additional info that we uncover. Best Regards Jim from Pa in USA
  2. Bob, evidently this is one of those engines that was modified for carbs. I have a box with two complete sets of carbs. Did people install carbs instead of keeping fuel injection for horsepower reasons ? Thank you very much for researching and advising me on my car & engine. This car was modified many years ago, it evidently has a modified engine, fiberglas front & rear spoilers, recaro front seats, "S" type Fuch ? wheels. Since the car is not 100% original it probably has less value to a collector, but the period upgrades make it interesting for us. Once again many thanks Jim
  3. Bob, the 7 digit number on the vertical casting on top of crankcase starts with a star followed by 6322321. Cold this be a newer engine in my 1969 Targa . Bottom of the crankcase has another number: 901 101 101 5R. Any ideas as to year and horsepower of this unit. Thanks Jim
  4. Bob, engine is out of car and apart. Is the number on the block the correct set of numbers to use. I also noticed numbers on the head. Thanks for your reply and future help, Jim
  5. Engine is apart and out of car, I will get numbers off it tonight. I have noticed numbers on various parts, is the number on the block the correct set of numbers to use ? thanks for your reply and future help. Jim
  6. What is the VIN you are looking to decode? That will help..... DC I'm trying to decode vin #11 911 1217, Thanks
  7. concensus is my car is a 1969 (vin 119111217). Now trying to decode numbers, I have to get number off engine this weekend to see what info that gives me, Thanks
  8. :welcome: Look at my post two posts above yours. That is all the info you can get from the old VINs. Thanks Loren, I guess the confusion about my car is some sites show the vin number to be a 1968 car ?, and I'm trying to determine if the car is an "S" or "T" engine. Thanks again
  9. Dave I am having a similar problem. I have a 69 vin number119111217, and would like to find out how to decode it. Thanks for any help.
