Need help with VIN

Greeting All,

I'd like to figure out what kind/type of 356 I have. It's the original motor but seems very fast as compared to others. The VIN is 211659.. Can anyone help?

Regards, Bill

Hello Bill, That VIN is for a 1963 356B Coupe (T6). What is the serial# on the motor?

So it's a standard 356B? I'm asking because I bought it without emblems. It's all apart at the paint shop & want to put correct badges ("S" "90" etc..) on the car
