How can I know whether my car is SWB or LWB?

Any advices? My Vin no. is 119301255

Look at the access hole for the rear torsion bars. If it is right next to the wheel opening, it is SWB. If there is about a two inch space between the torsion bar cover and the wheel opeining, it is LWB.

So is it possible that 1969 911S has both SWB and LWB version? As my car was modified to be a 993 Turbo. So I don't have a correct rear quarter panel to inspect the space between the torsion bar cover and the wheel opening.

However I have some pictures of my restoration process, I believed that the current rear quarter panel that I am working on my car now isn't a correct panel for the 69, probably it is 72 or SC fender

I am in the process of bringing the car back to the original 1969 Look, and here is the picture of the parts that I purchased to work with my car. From the picture I noticed that it is a part for SWB car, like you said the rear access torsion bar is right next to the opening wheel. But the seller claim that there were taken off from the LWB car. I just want to have your guys idea whether I have a correct part for my car or not.

Thank you for your inputs

1968 VIN series 118xxxxx were SWB as in the photo above
1969 VIN series 119xxxxxx were LWB as in the photo series above that
there should be no 1968 LWB, not should there be any 1969 SWB
The yellow fender would be wrong

You are correct the yellow rear is for a SWB car, ZERO doubt.

Let me ask a couple more question,
So it seems that the rear quarter panel can't be used with my car, What about the front fender, front bumper, front hood and rear bumper. Would all the remaining part can be a correct part for my car. As every part that I ordered was taken off from the same car

Thank you very much

Only the front hood could be used although, there might be a slight difference in the under hood lights???

Rear bumper will be to long, front bumper will have different mounting brackets I believe, Front fender will not have the correct opening for your front blinker assembly.

I think also different sound deadening under SWB hoood, compared to LWB hood.
