We bought this very early (number 229) 911 Targa Oelklappe in California in 2016 and have used it for local outings and the occasional trip to the Ardennes, Luxemburg and the Eifel.
The car has been maintained correctly over the past years and we have spend around 10,000€ to make it a driver’s car. Very reliable, zero rust and the ideal basis to turn it into a concours car.

It took us a long time, to find a 911 Targa in the Oelklappe version. In 2016, we bought this nice red one in California from a director of snowboard movies. It has a production date of August 1971 and is thus one the first 250 911 T Oelklappe Targas ever produced!
The previous owner had put the car in storage for almost twelve years, so we conducted a full mechanical rebuild. We had the gearbox rebuild, the engine checked, carried out a complete revision of the brake system and callipers done and put some fresh rubber on the Targa. Since the targa top cover was not in very good state, we changed both the locks as well as the cover. We recently changed the typical American headlights for the European version (which makes the car look a lot nicer).
The car is absolutely rust-free as it has spent is completely life (until 2016) in California and is a perfect basis for a concours restoration. The engine runs very smoothly, does not smoke and has just received a full service. Note: The car has a minor leak.
The interior is still in a very nice condition but is missing the the small door buckets. The large ones are still on the car.
The only non-original elements are the side mirrors (from a 911 G-series) and the body color (now Guards Red and was originally Tangerine 018).
So this very early Oelklappe is available and can be seen and collected in Belgium.
