When I was a teenager I worked for a guy who had a silver targa and he let me use it now and then to do errands for him...I always wanted one of those and for my 50th birthday bought one

Not sure, but they look familiar! There was a member here that made up his own HID lights on Euro or H4 styled frames, although his center bulb were more larger. I can't remember his username at the moment!

What size tires are you running in the rear and front? I just purchase some 8's for the rear and going to move the 7's to the front as well , do I use the same rear tires I have or do I Ned to get a wider tire to get the same Set up you have? I have 205's in front and 225's in rear now .
Thanks

My first Porsche, this Kiln Red '84 Targa. Got it in September.

I thought I always wanted a coupe and I never thought I cared for tails on Targas... but this car just found me. I fell in love, my preconceived notions disappeared and it just worked out. It's just great to be able to take the top off, so glad I ended up with a Targa.

Not a criticism but you might want to put a chin spoiler on your baby......for handling reasons. S
