    1972 Targa Seals WHICH ARE CORRECT???

    We're installing the front, rear, and side window seals on a 72 Targa. There seem to be several different seals available for the front windshield frame header, and at least two different options for the upper side window seals.

    Someone must know what is correct...and more importantly, which combination of seals actually works!

    Thanks for your help

    My understanding is that none of the seals currently available are correct fo the early cars. The front and rear seals available are 964 style. There may be someone making some for early cars, would love to find them.
    Come to think of it I should get a set of the 964 seals before they are also gone. Maybe with the reintroduction of the Targa we can get some love for the old Targa.

    Dan Pechtal at Cars Inc in New Jersey sells seals he has reproduced in the correct profile for the early Targas.
