    Need help with My 1972 T Build date.

    Need a little help from this forum. I'm progressing on my #'s matching restoration. Since the car was painted from it's original color years ago, The VIN door sticker is long gone. I ordered the COA and it states "Information Not Available". I'm going to be getting a new VIN decal made, but don't know the MFG date. Anyone have any ideas (Estimates) based off the VIN#? This is the place that would know
    1972 911T #9112101075

    Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

    Chad,
    Before the door stickers were on the cars, we took a survey of component dates. You'll be suprised how much you'll learn about CD.
    Others will have 72 T dates to compare but I'm thinking before Christmas...I have 1802 also without sticker, and the components are mostly 2/72...So I'm thinking yours should be close to 11/71...Let us know what you find..remember it has to be a 72 911T to compare..

    Mike's info is the best on offer. I think that Dec 1971 is a safe bet.

    If you compare Mike and Franks' data, you can see they made 1030-390 coupes in 3 months or 213 per month. That is 10 per working day. You VIN is 45 beyond Mike's. That's 4.5 days. However, Mike's was built at most 2 days before the Christmas-New Year's shutdown that was common in Germany in those days.

    So I would argue yours was made in the first week of January 1972. Most likely January 5th, 1972.
