Default 928 Window Sticker

Just came across the window sticker from a 928 that my dad purchased back in 1982. It's a 1982 928 with Competition Pkg, metallic brown, 5 speed. Sold by Anderson Behl Porsche Audi, Santa Clara, Ca. Last 6 of the VIN 821922.

If you want it, you're the owner of this car, and can provide me with the entire VIN, I'll mail it to you - or can send you a scanned image.

The price? Just pass along any pics of the car and stories you may have.

Thanks,

Mitch

Maybe check on 928Registry.org to see if it is listed with contact info for the owner...? Any 928 with a comp package would likely be collectable and hopefully preserved.

BTW anyone can provide the rest of the vin, the last 4 digits are the unique serial number, the rest is pretty much the same for all of that model year except for maybe a single check digit.

A scanned image might be useful for many people who could adapt it for there own cars information.

Not sure if there is anything like a 'National DMV' site to run VINs... but you could try the various state DMVs starting with California and radiating outward?

Probably wouldn't cost any money -just time- until you found a match... then, you may have to pay for the info. Add whatever fee to the cost of the document.

Just for records sake, you could use the information on the window sticker and create the record for the Registry site... if anyone is looking for that VIN they can then find it there. Just a thought...

Good Luck and I'm glad to see an effort to reunite the two!

It would be great if you could post a scanned image of the window sticker. I have a similar car and would like to see what it looks like.

If only some database of Car Facts existed where you could Check your Auto.

With a big file, which would be nice to start from for projects, try one of the free image or file sharing sites. Photobucket and rapidshare are two that come to mind, then just link in a post here.

Perhaps contact the Castro Valley Union 76 and ask for owner's name & number?

Might be worth a shot!

Appreciate everyone's suggestions and info. I spoke to the owner of the service station - explained the situation and left my contact info. He'll be on the look out for the car and owner. The car is not showing in their system as a new computer was installed at the beginning of the year.

Image of window sticker is now at: http://rapidshare.com/files/257018406/scan0001.tif

Thanks again to all of you for your help! Hopefully I'll hear from the cars owner in the near future.
