Was back home visiting my family a few weeks ago and my dad has 2 ttas in his garage. He is finally ready to sell and I have agreed to buy one and restore. Both cars have been off the road for 20 years but luckily inside so the bodies are nice and interior are mint on both! Only issue is the rear wings need replaced but no big deal. I will be documenting the mechanical restoration on here and hopefully you guys can help with any issues that arise! Cheers!

Awesome another new guy!

I need a new rear spoiler too. So if you find a good deal let me know and I will do the same!

Nice cars and welcome as a new TTA owner !

Not sure if you looked up the VIN sequence number for your new car or your dads car yet? If you need help just post the last digits of the VIN and we can help.

Make sure you add your car to the registry on here if you have not yet done so. (and your dads car as well)

Lots of helpful and knowledgeable people on this site happy to help; along with a wealth of information posted if you do a search!

Congrats on the purchase and welcome to "our" world !

Thank you all so much! Those pictures are actually from my dad's garage (wish it was mine!) So I will be tackling this project in my small garage which should be interesting but doable for sure. I don't have the sequence numbers on hand but he does have the list and knows which ones they are. Both are leather interior and the one even has the recall plexiglass t tops still on it!
 
Welcome! Is there an interesting story to go with your dad having two TTA's?

Not really I was in high school and he bought them both within a couple of weeks. I think he was looking for one and 2 happened to come up for sale in the same week so he bought both. He always liked the turbo cars he had a gnx that he sold a few years ago that he bought new and my mom had a grand national that he had bought her new as well. I drove one of them a few times as he kept it in a barn at a house I was renting but then I moved out to AZ so it went to his shop along side the other one where they have sat for many years. Really looking forward to getting it back on the road!!
 
Sometimes life gets in the way but was finally able to get the first one home! A little dirty from cross country transport but supposed to be 70 on Sunday so will get a bath! More pics and specifics about the car on the way! Excited!
