    It should be

    A 1968 911T (therefore, Euro, not US) Soft window targa.

    May or may not

    have originally been a "softie." But the two I have in my "data base" with similar chassis numbers are soft rear windows. You'll have to get factory information to know for sure I think.

    It is a '68 SWB car with a 2.7 and an RSR body and you're worried about whether the hard window is original??? Why?

    You are a braver man than I am, then, and must have deeper pockets and a lot more skills. More power to you! Go for it...
