I think it went into the circular file....

Wait, what clip?

My 76 has a small screw and clip dead center on the frame. It's not big enough to provide sealing pressure; only vertical support. Maybe it was only on later models?

Not sure about a clip, but there should be two rectangular rubber pads that rest under the bottom of the window to keep it from moving down vertically.

Shea did a thread that is now in the classics. Read up!

I'm going to let Ruffino install the back glass. I attempted it, but in a black chassis it's hard to see what you're doing. I'd rather pay him the $45 to do it. Getting the Targa bar pad off of these cars is always an adventure, finding those elusive screws and not stripping them. Also, the DAPO had all kinds of shit jammed up between the window and the pad to get it to not rattle. It was time to suck it up, and take it all apart. I doubt that the rear glass has ever been out of this car in 45 years. It was basically hanging in the car by a thread.

In the meantime, I re-did the roll bar & sails with the excellent 914 Rubber German vinyl. (cheap plug)

It's bit tricky, but it came out nice.

I had an idea to do 911 style headliner material on the underside of my targa top. Today I bought some ivory/off white pin point vinyl and did the deed. for my first attempt at this, it turned out pretty good. I know what I would do differently next time; maybe line it with black hard cell foam(?)

Here is the stuff:

No, the Perlon is long gone. I don't think it would work at all over Perlon. It does brighten up the interior.

Cool mod, and I always liked this stuff.

And, you say, it brightens up the interior. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

It looks great! Did you just glue it to the top?

Larmo - That looks very nice. Big improvement over the typical roof.

I go to my local smallish hardware store to get a new can of 3M 90 spray adhesive, and there is a can of this:

I couldn't believe it!

(Btw, I did glue it straight to the top. We'll see how long it lasts.)

These are real euro signals lit up. I think I'd like to use them as daytime running lights and be able to control them on their own, with a dedicated switch.
