Default Wanting to see if numbers match.

Where can I find a list that would match the Vin. number to the engine and trans numbers.

Order a COA from PCA?

Did you check here as well? http://www.912registry.org

Jaime is spot on.

I went to that site mentioned 1st & found my numbers all to be in range. Then I ordered up the Cert of Authenticity from Porsche & confirmed all my numbers were factory correct.

I am used to the 914 site and when you put the vin number in it would list the engine number and trans and original color code. How do I order the cert. of authenticity from Porsche on a car that I am interested in?

Better not be a car that you don't have locked down. A COA isn't an instant thing. You wait a couple weeks for the COA and the car is sold by the time you get it.

+1 ^

I thought it was for a car you currently owned...

If this is for a car you are looking to buy, ask the seller if they have a COA... or use the link to the registry to see if the car has been listed.

If I remember correctly, Porsche will not send you a COA if you do not own the car... I think... plus it cost 108.95 (if you belong to PCA) for each COA you request.

Seller does not have COA but says that the engine and trans numbers are close to the vin numbers and as far as they know they are pretty sure they are both the original.
