Herman- I have had an early VW beetle rack on my 912 and it fit beautifully with just some minor massaging. Currently I have an amoco rack on it that looks great, I will try to get a few pics and post it up. The downside of the roof rack is that they are noisy, so if you are doing a lot of freeway driving it might drive you nuts.

I just checked the Thule website - they have rack systems that go back to 1976. With respect to the coupe and targa, I wonder if there were any chagnes to the basic windshield/Targa Bar of Coupe roof rails from 1969 to 1998?

The problem with the Thule, and all other, roof racks are that they will not fit a Targa, regardless of what their website says. Coupes are no problem for the gutter mount setups.
do a search on targa roof rack and you will find a post from a couple of years ago of a factory rack.
