    911 A pillars?

    Can anyone tell me if the shape of the A pillars changed over the years? That is, the profile facing the interior? Are the VIN plates riveted in the same location. Are they the same size? I only have one example to inspect, mine ('69). I'd like to know for a project.

    Thanks,
    Sherwood

    Sherwood,
    The evidence I can provide is as follows:
    1. I have a late model windshield (imbedded antenna) in my 73 targa, perfect fit.
    2. My 69 targa, 70 coupe, and 73 targa all have the vin plate in the same position.
    3. I believe that I have read somewhere that all doors are interchangeable at least from 1969 to 1989, dimensionally speaking.
    4. The above would lead me to think that all A pillars were the same in those years (except for Speedster models).
