I know there is alot of cross over here, so I thought I would ping the collective knowledge base.
He is not looking for a restoration project, but doesn't mind working on it either. He is pretty set on getting a targa as it will only be a fair weather driver (weekends, etc). No a/x plans for now, but who knows. Any advice on years to avoid, specifics to look for, good books for research, etc. would greatly apprieciated. This will be his first Porsche (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Make sure he has it checked out by someone who knows these cars (911/912), they can be very rusty in hard to find places. A nicely set up 912 can be a very sweet car - and they are easily converted to a 911 - like all Porsches you can plug in things like suspensions and go fast motors - I have a 911 RS clone (2.7 ltrs with 240 hp based on a 69 912) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)
