    OH NO!! Someone spilled clouds all over your front and rear bonnets :D

    Great photos.

    [Edit] I especially like the timeless look of the center console.... that
    would make a GREAT poster!!

    What is the deal with your targa top? It appears to be painted.

    It is...the new owner wanted it that way...not sure I object, it does grow on you.

    A side note on the top....look at the interior shot and see how well it integrates itself with the rest. I intentionally put leather inserts into the frames...I think it looks original.

    To be honest with you I like it a lot, you wouldn't happen to have some more sides shots with the top on the car by chance? Now bear with me since I have never seen a GTS up close, but what is the targa top material made out of?

    I LOVE painted targas on 3x8 cars! I am going to buy one of the $300 repro versions from Ricambi
    and have it painted to match. Talk about a VERY reversible aesthetic change that just happens
    to suit my fancy :)

    ps - Again, those pics are just eye candy :D Pat your son on the back for me.

    Yes...the new owner wanted the seats to look more retro...so we decided to copy the carbed patterns. Good thing about the year of this car, it didn't hurt so much moving away from "original".

    Really great shots! Paint is in superb condition. I do like the painted GTS tops. Thankfully my car is black, so I never chose to do it.
