Help with VIN/History

[Karl_W911]

I'm trying to find out more about my dad's car. I'm not exactly sure where to go for history, build date, options(if any), where it was sold, and what it's life was like between 1975-2014, Couldn't find much help over on Rennlist either so I figured I'd ask here. All I know is that it's a '74 car bought in 1975, most likely in Ohio.



I have the VIN, it's 9114102778 and here are some pictures of the only numbers that are visible to me, that is to say the only numbers I can easily find.




Any help is appreciated greatly, thanks!

I'm sorry, I'm not sure what I'm suppose to do with this.

9114102778:
911 = model
4 = year model
1 = 911
0 = coupe
2778 = consecutive build/chassis number

Can't tell much from the VIN.

If you can present as the car's owner you can get a CoA (Cert of Authenticity) from Porsche for $100. I did a search for records of a car that I owned, in CA, and privacy laws prevented me from getting a list of past owners from the DMV.
