I am convinced that Targas are donor cars for coupes.

Later model Targas I assume are much better and are for built for cruising, so ignore the wiggles.
FWIW, my 1973 with 175000 miles, during my 20 yr (and still going) ownership, has been taken to HPDE's, autocrosses and spirited driving regularly. I have none of the issues you state. There was something seriously wrong with that car.
