1974 911 Targa...what is different than coupe?
From inspecting the PET parts catalog it seems like there are only a few differences between a coupe body and a Targa body with the G-series.
Obviously there are some other functionality differences (manual windows, interior trim, moldings, etc) that differed, but are there any other major parts that differed between the coupe and Targas? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Different bracing in the footwell area. If you compare coupe to targa front carpets, you can see the difference

Firewall and rear seat pan?

Is the firewall actually different? I wouldn't think the rear seat would also be different (though I think the inner side metal is different).

A friend of mine has a '71 Targa and the rear seat area looks to be different than my coupe. I was told, though am not sure, that the engine sound deadener pad is also different. That is comparing my '71 coupe to his '71 Targa.
I have no proof of this, but thought it was worth mentioning. Then again by '74 it could have changed.
