Help with Vin number

[cassidyp]

Vin 11805095 off of the tag from a 68' Non sunroof coupe. I can't find my copy of the Restorer's guide that has vin decoding information. Would really appreciate a breakdown of this number.

According t o Bruce Anderson's book - page 43:

11805095 breaks down as follows -

11 = 911
8 = 1968
0 = Coupe, S-version
5095 = Sequential serial #

1968 911L coupe #095

Mike -

looks like we have different reference resources! ;^)

[Rot 911]

Mike is correct. It is a 911L not a 911S. If it was an "S" the chassis number would run from 1180001-11801267

Thanks guys. This is the 68 911L Coupe I am thinking of buying as my 3rd 911. Any of you coming to Hershey? Wife just says I gotta find somewhere to park it (oh yeah and finish the 72 targa!)

sorry -

I guess either my reference was wrong or I misread it.
