From a cargo carrier with no windows behind the driver's seat to a windowed passenger van with three rows of seats, the possibilities seemed endless.

Classic Car Overview

1968 Porsche 911 Targa Introducing this 1968 Porsche 911 Targa that is offered in a white exterior color. Originally delivered in its factory color Polo Red Polorot (Code 6802), this early open-top 911 is one of only 268 A-Series Targas ever produced, making it a rare example from the models formative years. Combining the unmistakable longhood styling with Porsches innovative Targa design, it reflects the brands response to growing safety concerns surrounding traditional convertibles during the 1960s. The Targa name itself was inspired by the famous Targa Florio road race in Sicily, where Porsche achieved numerous successes throughout the decade.Highlights.- California Car- 1 of 268 Examples- Long-Hood- Short-Wheelbase (SWB)- Factory Color: Polo Red Polorot- 2.0-Liter Flat-6 Engine- Weber Dual Carburetors- Four-Wheel Disc Brakes- VDO Instrumentation- Blaupunkt Radio- 15-Inch Steel WheelsEquipped with a 2.0-liter flat-six engine with dual Weber carburetors and paired with a manual transaxle.
