1967 PORSCHE 911 TARGA

Luxury sports car, rear engined and air cooled. The car was designed to full fill a desire to offer an opened top version of the original 911.

This design was built to full fill the potential of the US market and therefore had to adhere to the restriction of the US safety legislation to provide a roof with ” roll over” protection.

In 1967 Porsche produced the Targa, with a full rollover loop with a removable panel. On the early short wheel based versions, there was also a soft unzip-able rear window.

The name Targa quite interestingly took it’s name from the famously dangerous road race, The Sicilian Targa Florio.

Perspex face mounting provides a brilliance, intensity and saturation of image that has to be seen to be believed. Each framed artwork is supplied with painted split-battens for hanging.
