I got my COA but does not have month of Prod.

I received my COA for my 1973.5 911T Coupe.
My VIN is 9113103179
Can anyone help me estimate the month of production.

It does not have the door jam sticker or spare, so I dont know what to reference from here.

Any help would be Greatly Appreciated.

Regards, Louie

This is from the Redbook.

You may be able to make more sense of this than me.

Given the numbers presented it looks like yours would be at the tail end of the model year.

Edit: I'll get you a better pic

Thanks Bob

This does help. I know it was at the tail end of production.

If anyone out there has a 73.5 911T, can you please let me know the production month and tail end of your VIN to see if it was before or after mine.

Im going to order a Door Jam VIN Decal, but I need to at least try to get close to the production date for the stamp.

Thanks Again,

Louie

Louie,

PM DJPateman. Dave is kind of the keeper of such things. You give him your vin and he probably already has a vin in his database within 100 units of yours and a pretty solid pro-date based on that.

Thanks for the Tip Matt,

I hope all is well with you.

I sent him a PM as you suggested.

Cheers, Louie

1973 06 would be a very good guess.

Check the instrument dates. They are usually a 2-3 months prior to the birth date.

Mine is 3303 and had a production date of 07/73. Rims are dated 6/73, date stamp on gauges 5/73.
