The early 519 trans used in late '52 and early '53 were also not listed on the Kardex usually. By transmission ~900, they were listed pretty consistently (maybe a bit earlier). That said, it's possible Porsche doesn't list them on the COA anyway now. My COA from July 1953 has the transmission number listed, but I got mine several years ago.Vic Skirmants wrote:The 1950 to late 1952 cars used the VW full-crashbox trans. Porsche never listed that number because it was a VW part.
Martin; if your car is truly a 1953, then it would have had the 519 trans.
Martin, is yours an early '53 or later than March 1953?
