Help me finding the history of my US 911T!
Help finding history
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am at a point where the car I bought 1 year ago are ready to be registered. Whats is left to do is welding in new bottoms for the back seats, some small holes due to wather leaking in through the rear window and collecting in the sound matt in the backseat area. I have the replacement panels. I also have som interior details to install, and need to tune the engine. The engine runs fine, but I want a professional to check the carbs. I would very much like to know the history of the car, maybe someone recognice it or the previouse owner? I think the car last ran in Florida, and possibly in California before that. The plate in the picture, is that a genuine California plate(it came with the Car)? I also think the engine has been rebuilt, a crank with a bad bearing surface came with the car. I also found the small black sign under the carpets and the PCA sticker says 20 year membership. The picture of the car is prior to it being changed to euro spec. etc John

John,
I posted last year to get help on finding history for my 73T that I imported from California to the UK. Hope this helps. California Vehicle Search Ian

John:
The gold/yellow on blue California plate was in use from 1970 through 1983. While yours is a vanity plate, the 70 through 80 standard plate was 3 numbers followed by 3 alpha characters. Starting in 1981 the format was 1 number (a 1) followed by 3 alpha characters, followed by 3 numbers. Al |

Discussion of the CA numbering after 1980 reminded me of Harry Pellow's obsession with gitting a seven-character vanity plate with alternating '0's and 'O's ... to confuse the cops when writing tickets so he could get them thrown out. 0O0O0O0
