spotted a 911s targa needing restoration
Just spotted this 911s targa this morning. Could use a bit of work but it's a gorgeous car. Any idea what year it is?

Either that, or he had sealed seams for aerodynamics in prep for a speed record run.

Red duct tape adds about 3 HP vs. gray duct tape.

The narrow body combined with impact bumpers = 74-77 aka Mid-Year Cars.
