Roll Call: LWB Soft-window ‘S’ Targa

[CidTito]

Incidentally, I've been driving around top down all these last global warmed days.

Sneak Preview, the Irish Green one is back and much better than before. Drove great on the 1000 mile voyage to Monterey this year. Yes I drove it, not trucked it, they are meant to be driven and I prefer to build them so they drive like new.

That's beautiful, Mark.

Hi Rick
I bought that 1969 S Soft Window Targa VIN 119 31 0132 a few month ago . The car is now stored in my garage in Germany and will be restored to original condition in the next 24 month.
Your comments and your pictures were very helpful buying the car.
I just got the COA and the Kardex , on both there is no soft window or similar option noted. Thats a little bit disappionting. On the other hand there are all elements of a Soft Window Targa.
The missing mathing engine has the number 639 0440 . I found that engine in an early911 advert from 2007 , listed below. Maybe someone can help me with information about the owner of that car driving with my matching engine .

Year: 1969
VIN Number: 119121456
Winning bid: US $10,500.00 (BIN)
Sale date: Oct-09-07
Notes: "This is a very solid T coupe with an S engine#6390440.The car has had many billable man hours to strip the car to prepare for paint.Because it is just the tub one can view the rust prone areas and see how very solid this car is,any rust colored areas you view in the pictures are just that-rust colored,integrity of sheet metal is there.Seams are solid.The car is complete!I purchased and picked up the car from the shop that stripped it so it has not been moved from spot to spot.This is a tremendous opportunity to pick up a car that has already been taken down to prepare for paint.I believe my asking price is what an S engine is worth alone."
Thanks for your help
Gerd

Would love to see a group of these cars in one place...

In terms of LWB, throw in all the 911S and 911Ts you can find, there wouldn't be a need for a very large parking lot. I was at Werks Reunion, and every SWT I saw, I think a total of 4, were SWB. Aww, heck, group them into the gang too.
