1973 Porsche 911 Targa hotrod. This is an original Italian delivery Targa that was imported into Canada in the 1980s, we recently purchased the car fromit's long time air cooled enthusiast owner and imported the carinto theUS. I personally flew into Toronto and drove back, nearly 1000 miles. The car performed flawlessly and was a joy to drive. A lot of work has been done to this 911 over the years, its not perfect but is a wonderful, matching numbers, driver and shows verywell. Some of the highlights include:
EXTERIOR:
SC/RS look with butt welded SC flares. Currently all the bright work has been restored to the original polished aluminium and chrome.
FB front and rear RS bumpers
CF front fenders
Original H4’s plus fender mounted Cibie Repro fog lights.
Last repainted about 15 years ago by PO in its rare and orginal color Swartz Black, paint is not perfect but very presentable for a driver. Expect typical minor imperfections such as stone chips and a few minor paint blisters.
Suspension pan was repaired once and is solid but not perfect work, along with a patch to the rear drivers side floor pan.

Targa top recovered by PO and does not leak.
