    she looks like a nice targa michael. i hope you get some nice miles on her with the top off this weekend if it does not rain. if it rains, get out your detail tools and get to it from top to bottom. i always find it cars feel like mine after i do a full clean and detail.

    have fun michael and keep us posted on your thoughts.

    Big thumbs up! I like your taste in cars. The ducktail is definitely the way to go with that car. If it were mine I would think about backdating the bumpers as well, but an absolute must would be throwing a set Webers on there. You would then have exactly what I want my next 911 to be. Which also too could be sitting next to a black 308 one day.

    Wondering if that car has seen some DEs? It appears that it has the brake cooling kit built in the front bumper.

    i installed the euro taillights, the Carrera graphics, and the oil cooler duct from Pelican when the car arrived. also, a 3.2 is a great motor, and i would not put carbs on it, the Motronic works really well, but to each his own.

    :)

    I threw on 993 Carrera script on my 964....love the classic 911 lines...and the 308 is a car I still love. Looking for a blue one.

    Congrats. It looks to be in really nice shape. It even has the original period correct Blaupunkt Monterey SQR 23. Most of the time those are long gone! Enjoy your new Targa.
    Best regards,
    Dino

    thanks Ryan. i am sure people think i have multiple personalities, i also have this old 400 -4 speed black and gold trans am! talk about " different " ! the T/A turns more heads here than a ferrari or lamborghini. you just dont see the old metal on the roads anymore.
