Troubleshooter Posted 7February, 2018 Report Share Posted 7February, 2018 Here's a Targa project, maybe dreamer needs to deduct 20k for a sale though, judging from the ad info (lack off) and magnificent photos, lots of due diligence required with this one I think https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/paradise-point/cars-vans-utes/porsche-911-sc-79-80/1174479978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike D'Silva Posted 7February, 2018 Report Share Posted 7February, 2018 5 hours ago, Troubleshooter said: Buy one here. It's no bargain. Lefty import Targa 76, wrong engine, wrong colour, most people wouldn't pay anywhere over $45 and yes it may be all good, but you can't look it over, check anything, can't even test drive it - no guarantees at all, and you've still gotta go through the hassle and hope there's no hidden costs. Murphy's law, if there can be extra unaccounted for costs, there usually is..... I think the Hawaii 5-O car is a better proposition than the gumtree targa...pretty sure you cannot test drive the gumtree one either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scumtree Targa looks like a money (and labour) pit to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM911 Posted 7February, 2018 Report Share Posted 7February, 2018 I inspected that blue/green targa project a long time ago. It was an absolute piece of junk then, and it'd be worse now. It was living outside under a tarp for god knows how many years and everything is perished/broken/rusty. It's a parts car at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m in Melbourne though which makes inspection a little difficult. Man , great cars dont come to you , you go to them , that looks like a nice car .. Maybe @Mike-Sa fellow targa owner or another of the Melb crew can take look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluegus73 Posted 8February, 2018 Report Share Posted 8February, 2018 @cafe_racer .... have you looked at the red ‘81 Targa on Carsales? I drove it / looked at it last Friday and it is in really good condition. Owner is fastidious with it but needs to sell it. You could get it for $80k I reckon. I liked it, but I’ve decided I don’t want a targa. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/Porsche-911-1980/SSE-AD-5168582 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi cafe_racer, I have just sent you a message through the forum message system about a car you might be interested in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
