What part is from 1970?

So new body, and engine and gearbox replaced but still advertised/registered as a 1970?
1971 911E

Nothing except the vin plate.

And there are no photos of that

So could easily be a stolen 3.2 cab with a vin plate swap....?

My car too was an Albert Blue 1970 2.2E only 250 higher on the chassis number - but at least mine still has it's original shell.

I really can't see how anyone could list this car as a 1970 and then be so open about the various changes. How can you say that you could "Put the car back into its original state and you have an incredibly desirable, valuable 911 on your hands"

I doubt if there is a single bolt from the original car on that one. Its looks like a very nice 3.2 that has probably never been taken apart.

Makes you wonder where the 3.2's ID/VIN went to?

HT leads look like they've never been changed since the 70s.

This.
It's bit too convincing as a 3.2 cab, isn't it? "Previous owner has lost the history".
Would be interesting to see the "secret" number (dash stamp).

Probably a 'hot' 3.2 cabrio with a long bonnet vin.
