I'm thinking of picking up a spare targa to restore while I drive my car. I have a '75, but the targa I'm looking at is I believe a '72. Will the early targas fit on a late car and vise versa or do I need to get a late one?? Also what's the year break between the two tops?? Thanks.

I thought there was a couple of small changes in the tops that happened the same time the 914 door window updates happened?
Rear latch, pad and something else...seals? That might have been 74'? |

QUOTE(Root_Werks @ May 14 2010, 01:27 PM)  I thought there was a couple of small changes in the tops that happened the same time the 914 door window updates happened? Rear latch, pad and something else...seals? That might have been 74'? That would make sense. I think the tops are still interchangeable, but perhaps do not seal as well? Of course I can't remember the last time I drove with the top on. |
