Default 3 spd auto?

I thought 83 got the 4 speed trans. Is the Canadian car not the same as the us? If not what is the difference?

You're right, my bad- misread the number. A28.01 is the 4speed automatic.

R&P = ring and pinion ratio. For an A28.01, the ratio is 2.2:1.

Some sort of '86 911. Not an '80 to '95 928, so I'm afraid we don't have any options data on it for you. Sorry.

Default car history

I just recently got this car. Other than the title it came with 0 paperwork. Any ideas on how to find out how many previous owners or other intestine and or useful info about its past.

Thanks
Bill

Rob, I think this is a 951, aka a 944 Turbo, and a 1986 one

Anyway, we don't have records for this car, only 1980 to 1995 928s.

What make model and year of car? Guessing it's a 1980 Porsche, but likely not a 928.
