    Confirming correct gearbox number for a 79 SC

    Would like some info on whether our 1979 SC has the original gearbox. It is Aussie delivered Hamiltons Melbourne car delivered 24/4/79 and built 2/79. While I have the books for the car and Porsche have confirmed the vin 9119301875 and engine number are as delivered and that it was a manual I did not realize the gearbox number was still legible. The numbers being 915/61 719 4002. I have no reason to believe it has been replaced as the car was maintained by Hamiltons until 1992 as the original owner had The Porsche Cars Australia advertising and marketing account, and then Auto Coupe until 2006 at which time it was put into storage.can one of our learned colleagues decipher the coding and numbers.
    I could probably go back to Porsche Cars Australia but thought someone would know.

    The 9 in the 719 digits denotes 1979 .

      Thx that denotes 1979. What about the 61 after the 915. Do the 2 numbers 71 before the 9 in the group 719 tell me anything ? I am guessing the 4002 denote the production number for the gearbox.
