Cool

Yes! I am so glad to see fellow Targas standing up to be counted... my first P, got it a year ago, and it's an '80 SC in copper brown metallic, with poo brown leather interior. I have been fighting with leaks since the first rain (in Vancouver, we get a lot of rain. Come to think of it, a sunroof coupe would have been a better choice... but I'm smitten now!). New seals all round, and just a couple weeks ago caved in and got Dan Petchel to set me up with a beauty refurb. Wow, they actually fit that well, eh? Never would have guessed...

It's been hot and sunny here all week, and the new top has been sitting in the sun per Dan's instructions -- but off the car (I hope he understands!).

Not at home, so no pics for you yet... coming...

Nice to meet you all,

Mike
