Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Going to do a renewal of the roof on my ‘74 targa . Shouldn’t and doesn’t need a total overhaul though a recent drive with someone who was interested in it , convinced me of the merit.
so will post stuff here as I progress.
1st is to do order of parts which will include.
- Correct front seal for early car
- external Vynil roof skin
- custom dbl skin liner
may need some new fasteners etc as I’m going to rebuild a spare roof I have l, that is original to this car . It’s totally razzed.
a possible benefit to this is ensuring the targa roof is as good a fit as possible . Discovered there are 7 roof variations, whilst they all can attach to a car , they don’t necessarily fit well.
Rebuilding the old one will also enable me to continue to drive the car.
I had already redone the targas roof a cpl months ago replaced the seals and a new liner and did a check over.
Prior to the refurb it was like most/all, ‘leaky’, though targa roof sat well and was ‘quiet’.
purchased front, rear, side seals though AH and spent and continue to spend time finessing fitment.
however due to the front seal in particular been an incorrect part; it is 964 specific, it does not allow the roof to sit into the channel on the front screen frame correctly, creating excessive wind noise at anything approaching enjoyable speeds.
So I’m ordering correct seals and other parts from Targa Dan to fix this issue.
while the roof skin and interior liner is pretty good, I’m going to order these new as well.
so has anyone recently ordered parts for DIY Targa fix from Targa Dan or, any other supplier.?
if so please offer opinions on quality etc
cheers
Thx dude . Been looking at how too’s awhile ... I’ll have a squiz
going to make a jig if necessary otherwise use the car , so can keep it true so it is able to fit the opening.
