1969 Soft Window Targa, how many built?
 
Just got the COA back on my Canary Yellow 1969 911T Targa that I suspected was originally a soft window car....
Turns out it is indeed a soft window car, 5 spd, leather, factory AC and special order color.
My question is this, how many soft window Targa's were built in 1969?
I know it's not very many, just trying to get an idea of what that number would be.

I see 614 911S Targa's, but no delineation between soft & hard window versions.

Perhaps someone has that information. :)

Thanks for that info Steve.
Anyone else have any ideas on production numbers?

Here's your answer.....165 total for all 1969 models, 12 for the 1969 911E, 9 for the 1969 911S, and 144 for the 1969 911T.

My source at Porsche declares there is only a total '69 Targa count not a breakdown of Soft & Hard.

I spoke to Howard Adams at PCNA years ago when I requested my COA and his opinion was a total of 50 to 60 911 & 912 combined. I've come to the conclusion that number is low due to knowledge of 10 in the PNW alone. I doubt 20% of the total ended up in one corner of the USA.

It would be interesting to know where the author got his information.

I occasionally correspond with someone at Porsche that has access to the records and he can't declare a count.

I haven't found an answer in the 25 years I've owned my 69 SWT.

Sure would like to know.
