additional ducktail part number

[peekaboo]

Does anyone know this part number ? : 901 512 001 61

Strangely , it is listed on the factory manufacturer's certificate for TUV along with the normally used part number of 911 512 905 00.

They are both listed in the same box as glass fiber for " Heckspoiler Carrera '73 " .

This document is dated 1999 , I do not understand the 901 part number . Is this a mistake .....and this 901 number is for a glass fiber flat rear lid (aka : 911R type) ??

I believe the factory made a small number of all glass ducktails (no metal frame) , used on the factory owned/raced 73MY RSR's. But with a 901 part number, I do not see how this could be one of those (IF those even had a unique part number - which I doubt).

Nor do I believe is there a differant part number for a 73MY duck vs. a 74MY duck , as both variations ...small & large grill opening were used in 1974MY (even if there had been , the 74MY part number would have started with 911 ...as a 73MY does).

This early number has baffled me for awhile.

There were stiil lots of parts used on the '73 2.7RS & 2.8 RSR with '901' part numbers ...

73 and 74 would have different part numbers due to the different license light configuration.

The part number did exist as it shows up in the factory price list -- last retail $609.22. But doesn't show up in the M 491 2.8 ltr parts book.
