    1968 Coupe doors fit in a Targa

    I'm in the process of having my 68 911s Softwindow repainted. My doors have some rust along the bottom seam.

    I have access to two 68 doors from a coupe. Of course I will have to change the windows and window assemblies, but otherwise is the coupe door sheet metal interchangeable with a Targa door?

    Thanks

    The door shells are exactly the same. Gee, how would I know that?

    Regards

    Yes - those doors will fit fine. Make sure you get the fit right before paint though, doors from other cars always need tweaking...
