Targa -> Cab Conversion - BTDT

I still have a lot of little loose ends to clean up, like getting the tension right, the windows adjusted, etc. I have about 16 hours into it so far.

Nice job, Thom. With the 964 decklid, that thing'll look downright conservative!

Cool

You dog. I feel like I helped get your conversion rolling when I posted recently, and now look at this! I've seen some accurate information and somebody ACTUALLY DID IT.

I think I know what my summer project is going to be now. Man, you just cost me a lot of time and money.

(Great job, BTW. )

Yeah, that extra lip-thing made the whole thing too low - I would have almost had to cut holes to run my exhaust thru!

I've decided to use an RSR bumper in the front, so I can fit a larger oil cooler. The cooler and bumper are the [i]next[i] project... - then paint!
