I recognize this request may get negative feedback but this SC was a targa and it was converted to a cab in mid 90s. I know my costs will not be recouped but I would like to do it from the aspect of putting it back to what it was. And besides I really like the targa look. I believe I can obtain the necessary targa parts, have body shop help and am hoping that somewhere someone has undertaken this “cab back to targa conversion” and can give advice and guidance. Or by chance anything documented like the Porsche booklet put out on “converting targa to cab”. I’m in the metro DC area and could visit any shop or person who’s done the “cab back to targa” conversion. Many thanks in advance for help.

I think I recall a thread some years back on either Pelican Parts or the Early 911S Registry where this was done. Much easier to return to a Targa than create a cab out of one.
