Ben,
Welcome to the board...
From the VIN it seems you're looking at a very late production U.S. 1977 911S Targa.
The production numbers went from 0001 to 2747.. so it's almost the last one in '77 production...
Hope this helps,
Chuck

You haven't provided the engine number or Color code info from the car. We can only make an educated assumption as the the correctness/"numbers matching" aspect of the engine. That can only be affirmed by the factory via a Kardex of a Certificate of Authenticity or whatever is is called these days. Am I guessing correctly that you are not located in the US?
Provide those numbers and we can make a SWAG about the engine.

Jim
PS: The engine number and the paint code number will be on or in the car.
thanks for your help
exact i'm not located in the US but the car came from the US
the engine number is 6275935 (is it a real 2,7 S 175 CV?)
the color is metallic Burgundy the number on the car is 436-9-3
there is also another number written with the references of the tire ( 185/70 VR 15) with is 911.006.512.07 but i don't know what this mean?
another number is 901.101.101.7R
tanks for my learning i'm so excited...

Your engine number denotes it as a US 77 911S 2.7. Again, it is near the end of the run and the chances that is the original engine are very high. 77s came with a few upgrades from 76 that make it more desirable, IMHO. They have larger brakes (A calipers vs M calipers) and more than likely, they are equipped with a front oil cooler. 2 very good things.

I am the original owner of this 911S Targa. When I sold it, it was all original except belts, shift bushings
sway bar bushings, light switch cover, filters & gas tank cleaned& sealed. I was told it was in Paris, I would like to
keep up with it, if you don't mind? Thanks, Larry
