Hi,
I am in the process of viewing and possibly buying a 1976 2.7 Targa S. I bought a buyers guide online but this was very non-commital about the engine being suspect. gearbox problems e.t.c
The vehicle in question has had the engine rebuilt about 8 years ago and has done 40000 Km's since. There is a bill from a porshce main dealer for around €8000 for the full rebuild. The owner has the vehicle listed as 165 PS. Doeas this indicate that it is a U.S import?
Apart from mentioning to check the floorpan for rust because of the targa not really that much more advise.
Anyone offer advise what to check for? Is there a definitive bill of materials somewhere which shows which parts should be on which vehicle?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
James Walker
