The early 911 Targa holds a special place in Porsche history, born from a unique blend of innovation and American safety concerns. Introduced in 1965 as a "safety cabriolet," it offered open-air motoring with the added protection of a roll bar, addressing fears of a looming convertible ban in the US. The 911T, or "Touring," arrived in 1967 as the entry point to the 911 range, offering a slightly detuned but no less engaging flat-six engine. By 1973, the 911T had evolved, now featuring the larger 2.4-liter engine, marking the final year for the coveted long-hood G-series before the impact-bumper generation took over. These cars represent a sweet spot, blending classic 911 aesthetics with a more refined driving experience. This 1973 Porsche 911T Targa, chassis number 26237, presents a compelling opportunity for the enthusiast seeking a rewarding project. Offered with a Certificate of Authenticity confirming its matching-numbers status, this Targa provides a solid foundation for a complete restoration. While originally finished in Silver Metallic, it now wears a coat of Ivory paint over a partially refreshed black interior. Significant restorative work has already been undertaken, including a new floor pan and some interior elements. With much of the heavy lifting already completed, this matching-numbers 911T Targa awaits a passionate hand to bring it back to its former glory.
