It's officially a habit...

After 4 years with an '82 Targa, I bit the bullet & got an '81 Coupe to go with it. Huge thanks to vtdriver for the sale & taking such good car of the car- it's one of the most stunning SC coupes I've ever seen. Additional huge thanks to Steve at RPM in Vergennes for setting up the deal.

Only plan for the car is to install a Rennshift shifter/coupler, as it totally transformed the Targa. Looking forward to an early spring!

Haha, holding onto them both for now, thanks though. Part of the deal was the wife gets to take the Targa all summer long.

No, no - it's not a habit. It's a hobby. Three or more? *That's* a habit.

Great looking car! Enjoy.

I'm looking to add some open top motoring to my stable, but time and space (and money) are a real barrier and I can't get myself to sell any of my 2 coupes.

Cheers,

Those last two shots need to go in the Stance thread. That car is sitting just right. Looks great. -J

The stance is awesome. What are you running? 21 MM spacers in the rear on 9's? Also, is the ride set at Euro height?

I have to thank the PO for how beautifully the car sits. Nicely refinished Fuchs as well.

Looks to be stock 6's and 7's with a serious spacer on the back. It's much lower than Euro height too.

Total badass stance. Definitely looks lower than Euro height. Didn't know 6 and 7's can look that good. Looks like good clearance in the front too.
