    '68 911 targa on ebay :Anyone else see anything wrong with this listing?

    I was just looking at that, wondering what year it really is, guessing 69 with some other motor, but not caring enough to look the posted vin up myself:-)

    11870146 VIN says 1968, but has no marker lights peculiar to 1968. Looks to be a LWB, strange for a '68
    2.2 engine would not be original, and looks like 16" rims are much newer.

    dave..not ALL 1968's came here with side markers. 1967 door handles. 1969 speaker grill, quarters& fenders look to LWB. So, if the VIN says 1968 we've seen these adaptations be4. I've seen worst.

    '68 T, ROW car, no '68 T for USA, so no side marker is correct.

    Yup, I saw the battery box and said: huh? Then I went looking at the rear adjuster covers, and that screamed LWB. The paint badge and compliance badge below it say 68 or 69. The guages are 69 up. The mag tranny case says 69 up. My guess is 1969, but depends if it is stitched or just renumbered.
