You absolutely cannot come on here and say something like that w/o pics!!

In fact, this ought to be moved to the 911 forum!

Yes, and you really should have a chin spoiler if are going to run that wing, the front end will be very light at speeds with the current set up..
Enjoy it!!!

Welcome Targa Brother! You will enjoy the fun & sun days with the roof off. Nothing like it. Porsche always was meant to be a roadster beside the racing ambitions. Move your thread over to the 911 Technical board. I bet you get a lot of recognition there.

Yes, the doors are interchangeable.

But the license plate does not go into the wing.

If it's a '74, why does it have the big bumper cushions? Or was that only Euro models?
