You guys are going to laugh - as we have come a long way in pricing.
Back in June of 2012 I was looking on here in the used parts section and there was a Targa top for sale. Guy had just had the whole thing rebuilt with a new top, etc. It had a small scratch in one corner but looked as new. Since the hard top Targa top is OEM on my car (I still have it) I wanted a folding one so I did not have to carry around the large top.
He started it at $500 OBO. It sat for weeks. He lowered it to $375 OBO. It sat for another 2 weeks. I offered him $285 plus shipping and I got it. Looks new except for the scratch. When it came it was better than the photos.
Goes to show how far things have come in six years. Parts were very inexpensive for these cars (especially used) - back in the day.
Oh well.
I wonder what a Porsche factory hard Targa top is worth nowadays from a '75. Probably at least half of what I paid for the car.
