I am looking for a reconditioned Targa Top both inside and out. I would settle for someone that is capable of doing the repairs for me. Currently the one I have is in desperate need of repair. The outside is not bad at all but the inside has dry rotted along the Vinyl covered front and has ripped open. I can provide pictures if needed.

"the inside has dry rotted along the Vinyl covered front and has ripped open."The targa tops are fiberglass with a woven fabric headliner. I've only ever seen one that had some sort of vinyl covering applied, and that was on the outside. Pix would good

I agree with Mark. No vinyl on the targa top

Maybe he is talking about he bolster attached to the top? Above the visors?

Yeah, Rich. Just had some left-over material ...
I'll have to check my wife's car ... I don't remember seeing a bolster.

The rear area with the extra material makes the top look great with a much more finished look. The tops I have for my car both needed all the rubber replaced and 914 rubber worked with me to make sure I had the correct parts and could install them in the right place.
