You mean a reproduction one?

Yes, my car was restored and did not get the plate with it.

I have been able to find the VIN tags that go in the trunk, but not the one for the A pillar. Have you tried contacting the dealer or PCNA?

It's hard to imagine the VIN Tag missing from the A Pillar as it is permanently attached, What type, year and VIN is your Porsche? Don't believe earlier RoW cars had Tags in that position and if your car is one of those, it may never have had one.

My 1969 911T had one so I know they go back that far. Who did the resto? See if they have it.

Ask around at your local chop shops. They might have a few extra.

Hard to believe a shop would remove that VIN tag. Are you sure it was there before they touched the car?

My 1970 is missing the tag. I don't know when it was removed. Maybe during a windshield replacement?
