SWB or LWB identification help
 
Can anyone tell if this is a SWB or LWB from these pics? And a 911 or 912(has no motor) for that matter?

If the jack holes are right next to the wheel opening = SWB.

If a few inches in front of them = LWB.

I say LWB.

Look at the slight lip/flare on the fenders. SWBs don't do that. They are slab sided.

Also appears to have fixed door 'wing' windows. Coupes got that in 69.

Thanks for the help. I don't have a better pic of the jack holes. Post pic of the fixed windows to make sure.

So 69 and up LWB?

Those door handles, with the trigger on the backside, were found on 70-77 models IIRC

This is an LWB car, book it.

Thanks guys!

Definitely LWB as others have said. Not only door handles and the like but the rear flares and lack of wing windows are a dead giveaway.

Thanks! No way to tell 911 or 912?

Assuming that the door handles are correct for the car (which they usually are as no one really invests to update them) this car would be a 911. It is a good bet that this is a '70 to '71 911T.
