Default 92 owners, Body VIN question for you....

I noticed the body stamping numbers on Minty and the Matador are different. Minty has a German ROW VIN where the Matador has the North American VIN. I wonder when they changed this over? Minty was built in September 1991 and the Matador on June of 1992. I have heard that North American 944s also have the ROW VIN. If you have a 92 what do you show?

Thanks

I don't have it handy but maybe you can look at the vin thread a couple of pages back and get mine.

Getting turned into a track car....eventually. Other projects keep jumping in line. Bought it as a shell, saved it from the scrapper. Sadly it's missing the recessed badge hood, was swapped out for a non-recessed midnight blue hood at some point.
