    Showroom tag

    I friend on mine gave me this paper tag from a '69 S. It came off the front of his car when it was sitting in the showroom. In perfect condition too!

    Pretty rare.
    Edited: There are repros around - done by a member - and I bought one.

    Here are they mounted (1969)

    Interesting and unusual find there, rpapy.

    Here is the thread on Carl's reproductions:
    http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...Plates-911-912

    What's interesting to me is the SAE power rating on your original piece - 195. It was actually SAE 190, but there were a few pieces of period lit published with 195 instead. This plate looks to be another.
