Picked up a new to me 87
Been Porsche'less for a while but thats over now. Just picked up this 87 Targa with 74 on the clock. Its had some paint work but all panels are original. Some records from the PO. Top redone by Dan at Cars Inc. New rubber, new brakes, recent clutch and lots of receipts for general maintenance.
Slippery Slope begins... 3 point belts going in the back asap so my 7 year old son can ride with me!

Looks really clean! Perfect weather for some top off driving... I'm strongly considering moving from coupe back to a Targa.

Beautiful! Lovely interior color.
...oh, and just maybe I am a tad envious of that G50..

Nice car!
A Targa and a Ducati? You have got very good taste. I never thought that three point belts could be put in a 3.2 in the back.

Nice looking and congrats!
Can you post some pictures and info through the 3 point addition as I am very curious to see your progress. Been looking---slowly---but looking for a 911 addition but need the 3 point for my daughter and have shyed away from the pre-'89 because of it. If you can't, that's no problem too! Mat

Car looks fantastic. Congrats Trader!
3 point belts is a great idea. I didn't know that was a possibility either. I might have to add that to my list of to-do's as well. Rich

Just for kicks, I paged through some old threads on this forum and dug up a photo of my old 87 targa with my old 89 Ruf Turbo in the background. Both sold long ago.
