    Seek History of my 911

    Have just bought a Porsche 911 coupe, still pretty good condition lying in garage for last 10-15years. no history so want to research it. chassis number. vin..307782s & engine number. 961433, its a LHD probably a US import! can anyone help in establishing manufacture year, type of engine, gearbox type etc, etc.
    This would be appreciated

    thank you.

    That would be a 1967 911S and appears to have the correct type engine (901/02). I believe that engine would be original to the car. If you can post a photo of the paint badge on the drivers door hinge post, I can help further. There are type # and build #'s to be found on the engine, see this thread:

    The transmission # can be found on the bottom rib below the differential section. Often it is scrubbed since it is the lowest part.

    6602 would be polo red. It's much easier for us to help you if you
    post your pictures. Also more entertaining for us :-)
