    Hello, I need your expertise.

    Which part is correct for a 67er Targa: the black or the yellow part and
    which hood opener is correct: the round one or the one with the handle.
    The Kardex mentions leather seats and leather interior.
    Which areas besides the seats were also covered with leather at that time?

    Kind regards

    Thank you very much, Jim, Gled, Franz and Tom!


    According to the leather interior even Porsche Classic couldn´t give an answer.
    Does someone have a factory leather interior from 67 in his car?
    The door interior of the blue Targa is it leather or plastic Tom?

    Kind regards.

    To consolidate the comments by gled49 and Moito: the top plate is correct (bottom plate will not fit rubber bushing properly). Whether it should be black is open to discussion. These sort of parts were originally plated to offer some protection from immediate rusting before they were installed. However given the environment in which this plate lives, the long run is better served by painting (or less pure powdercoating). The same arguments then are made about the bolts: does one replate them and leave them that way, or does one then paint them too? On my 67S Targa I left both these plates and the bolts in their plated form: gold iridescent. If you poll so-called expert concours judges you will probably find conflicting opinions.
