re the Porsches -
Those are correct comments - the 911SC of 83-87 are widely considered to >
have bulletproof engines with some going 300K mi with never being opened
up.
As far as the Targa - the targa roof can be frustrating to get it to seal
properly. I rode in one recently that had supposedly been sealed by an
expert actually sounded like a window was partly open! It wasn't raining
so I don't know if it was waterproof or not - but it definitely leaked
air.
The newer 911's are more powerful, smoother, quieter and faster - but they
may also require the more expensive.
Are you planning to buy one?

My son would like to buy a fixer-upper and then he and I would fix it up in
my shop on weekends. EBay has them from $8000 (a parts car or major
fixer-upper) up to about $30,000 currently. We're just trying to get an
idea of whats available, prices, whether the rich guys suggest was correct,
etc.
Thanks,
Gerry Archer
'83 300D and 240D
