Parts 911 Targa
Every once in a while them deals do pop up. Long story short This is what $300 can buy you nowadays.
Plus a lot of body metal, rear glass, and parts on the back of the pickup truck. I had to act fast so I just tied it up to the bumper of my truck and drove it through the back roads:
I know; it looks irresponsible but there are four separate straps with a tow strap wrapped around several times in the middle. It wasn't letting go and the sub 20 minutes going down took an hour at a top speed of 20mph.
Anyways... Could somebody help me decode the vin? According to this site https://www.stuttcars.com/technical/vin-decoder/ 10-digit is a 1970~1979, and the fourth digit is the year (0 = 1970, 1 = 1971, etc) so it should be a 1973.
Except that the tag says it is a 911SC, and those were not introduced until 1978. So what year is it?
