regarding sunroof - for sure no
right side mirror didn't find them , but what i know is car had them and was glued. I will try to upload with some pictures, car i took as I said from one guy from scrapyard, i will try to make some ownership papers, but i buy it for parts, that was the only way legally in Romania to buy from him, and have some papers. What I can say, car was modified by Strosek and have a very nice tunning kit.
tomorrow for sure gearbox i will check for serial !

Great!
Now, we know that this 928 was the 2849th ordered of the 1983 model-year.
Your next step will be to contact Porsche AG or your local importer, with a proof that you are the owner of this particular car, and Porsche AG can certainly find the VIN of the car.
From this number and the engine number, M28/11 82D 0668, I think that your car was one of the 824 RoW manual 928 S of the 1983 model-year. 721 were LHD cars, like yours.
The gearbox number would also help. I suppose that it will start with G28/07. It is stamped just under the gearbox.
If you provide these three numbers (production number, engine and gearbox), Porsche must be capable to find the VIN and confirm if the engine and the engine's numbers match their records.
The original VIN must be something like WP0ZZZ92ZDS84???? .
