Again, thank you.
No options available on 78 and 79's .. sorry.

9289101781 ... All I can tell you is that it's a '79, and being in the VIN range of 9289100011 to 103059 it's a ROW.

Thnx Dave. I can confirm its a 5 speed but was told it has a manual sunroof. Did Porsche ever have/fit a manual sunroof on these cars?? I will recheck the eng # again and advise further.

Thanx & Cheers

Tony

Thanks Dave, that's about what I expected. Do you think going through Porsche directly would get me additional information? I'm in unfamiliar territory here, lol. No book with option codes, and no codes under the rear carpets. I've considered a CoA, but am unsure if any significant new information would be provided.

Whole option sticker thing started later on. Possibly in '82 MY. In any case '79 shouldn't have it.

I would expect original paint and interior codes at least. CoA is only way to find them. One small question is can local imported handle such request.

Can't tell beyond it not being a US or Canadian car, 92881 just indicates that it's a R.O.W. car.
