Any idea if the gearbox is a match on this car?

I'd assume it is not matching to the car. If it was, it would have been stated as matching, as the engine is stated as matching.

Could that also be because they wouldn’t be able to confirm it without a CoA or CTC? Or would European Collectibles have inside sources to help confirm it pretty easily?
I reached out & they could neither confirm nor deny it being a match. The reason the engine serial was matched was because it was listed on the original purchase document from 1969. Car does not have a CoA. Was just hoping there was an easier way to confirm it without having to pay for a CTC.

Auction Description:
- One of the most well-documented early 911s in existence
- Meticulously maintained by the original owner for over five decades
- Has spent all its life in the dry Arizona climate
- Equipped with ultra-rare factory air conditioning
- Said to be wearing factory Burgundy paint over factory black upholstery
- Accompanied by countless service documents and invoices dating back to new
A well-equipped 911E is offered here. Purchased new from Ted McWilliams Porsche Audi in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in July 1970 by a college student home for the summer, the car would be driven back to Arizona that fall and remain in the dry desert for the rest of its life.
Like all 911Es, the car was well-appointed with a leather-wrapped steering wheel, self-leveling hydro-pneumatic front suspension, high-capacity ignition, and 14-inch Fuchs alloy wheels. Factory fitted options included an 18-millimeter rear sway bar, Blaupunkt Frankfurt US-band radio, and ultra-rare air conditioning. For increased reliability, the self-leveling suspension was updated to modern shocks while the air-conditioning compressor was likewise updated to a modern unit. The original compressor is included in the sale.
The car is unquestionably one of the most well documented Porsche 911s in existence. Accompanying this Targa are reams of service documents dating back to the summer of 1970. These include everything from factory recommended break-in service records to the original dealer order sheet. The original owner’s manual, service booklet, and tool kit are included as well.
Benefitting from single-ownership with volumes of documentation chronicling its life and well-appointed with the rarely seen factory air-conditioning system, this 911E Targa provides an exceptional opportunity for the driving enthusiast and discerning collector to own a prime example of Porsche’s highly desirable, post-update, first-generation 911.
This is the beautiful Conda Green example that sold on BAT for $211 in 2019.
