Black trim became optional about 1978(?), and then black became standard and shiny became optional about 1981 or 1982, so late 70's- mid 80's could could be either trim, assuming what I read is correct,

To my knowledge the black t-bar came post 1977, the year that both the 2.7 and the sc were in production. I have a late 1977 2.7 and it came with the aluminum brushed t-bar. The sc came with black trim

Great Thread

I love my Targa. The top is rarely on. Indifferent about the tail though, may remove it.

1971t





Followed me home a few weeks back. #;s matching under all the 90's stuff.
I'll be working to make it LH or Carrera look.

Cheers!
