    Looking for obscure 911 Literature

    Hello to all,

    i remember long time ago i saw on a Forum two originals Porsche manuals, one was the instructions to convert Targas into Cabriolets ( i suppose it was from middle 80s and
    i recall instructions of fitting a shock in the engine bay to compensate missing targa bar) and one of the selling of kits to "update" the pre bumpers to "bumpers" look.

    Is anyone with those manuals that can pass them? i would like to investigate these kind of "procedures" of updating for historical reference library.

    Thank you for every help!

    i should have two of the targa conversion instructions...will have a look tomorrow (unless i forget about it)
    the shock thing is to eleminate vibrations that could built up..if i remember correctly
    never heard about the facelift instructions..but that does not mean it does not exist

    thank you about the manuals, will wait for your reply!

    I don't remember if about the conversion it was an official Porsche manual or a Porsche parts seller that offered complete kits..
