Scott, I was too cheap to ever buy one. What I do have is a letter from the factory, written before the Kardex thing came along. I just sent a letter, asking for info on my car. In a month or so I got a polite response:
"Our production records show that your Porsche was produced in July of 1972 and left the factory with the following specifications:
engine number 632 2285
color Irish Green
Interior Beige Leather
options: US equipment, limited slip differential, blaupunkt radio, fog lights, tinted windows.
Dealer Volkswagon of America, Chicago
In model year 1972 a total of 1750 911S coupes and 983 Targas were produced.
We hope to have been of help and remain,
yours sincerely,
K. Resch O. Lang"
Scott, compared to your car, mine rolled off the line as a "stripper"...

PWD you must remove those non correct sport seats right away! Send them to me and I'll recycle them properly for you. I'll even pay the shipping.
Mine?
Silver Metallic
Tinted Windows
US Frankie
AC
Comfort Package (WTH?) Does this mean 14" wheels?
Paul if yours is a stripper then mine is the skinny guy in the corner waving the five doller bills!

Michael...check Scott's earlier thread...what his car came off the line with. It was "loaded" according to the options list of the time...which certainly wasn't as long as the options lists of today. I've heard they are quite long these days...Now it's gratuitous pic time...here's one Scott took when he was here last week....I think he has the "eye" for being behind the lens...but I could be prejudiced because of subject matter. (edit) I never made a secret of the fact that I bought those "non original" sports seats from Stoddard back in the 70's...he ran a "close out special" in PANO. May have been worried of no demand because they weren't black leather. I was dialing in a heartbeat for these seats with '73 rails. Now to REALLY make you guys cry? Price to me, including shipping? Around $700...and I sold the standard leather seats for around $500...buyer paying shipping...Gee guys, did I do okay?

This was the letter I received from Porsche regarding my 912. Neither the 911 or 912 had the years listed on their respective titles and I was quite clueless back then.
