Belated Intro

I guess since I've been on here for over a year I should probably post an introduction thread. Here's my '82 SC Targa - Jane (named after my wife's Grandmother), she's getting ready to turn 90K miles. Did the headstuds and a top-end on her this past winter thanks to the immeasurable amount of help from this forum. This winter she gets her targa bar and tail repainted and maybe a recovered top (although from reading about it, its as hard as rebuilding the engine).

Here's a few (bad) iPhone pictures - her paint wouldn't be kind to better photography. Its a 10-foot repaint and I like not worrying about rock chips when I'm driving the snot out of her. Located in Springboro, OH between Dayton and Cincinnati.

Thanks again for all the help, this is a great forum!

From one Targa lover to another, welcome!! Don't believe everything you read on here about these wonderful cars. Personally it's the coupes and cabs that are the ugly red headed stepchildren!! Uh-oh.......

Welcome! Sweet targa.


Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
