Default New 911 in SoCal

Hey Guys,

Just swooped up this 81 Targa. It runs and drives great, but does need some TLC. I'll be replacing the entire interior followed by a lot of basic maintenance. It's definetely not a concourse car, but the price reflected that. I am pretty excited to get started, as this is my first Porsche.

Nice. I'm actually in Corona and work at Eibach. Once I get my feet wet I'd like to throw some sort of Porsche event here

An IE Meet would be fun. It would be nice to meet you guys. I have a bunch of newbie questions and need some Porsche buddies!

Worked on the car a bit today. I pulled most of the interior out, which was pretty gross. I'll be ordering an Appbiz carpet kit this week and probably their RS door panels. I will be deleteting the rear seats. Here are a couple pics and a garage shot with my Type R.

How bad is the install on the carpet kit? I know it's something I can do, but I get really bored with stuff like that after about an hour and start cutting corners
