A G series Targa with some backdating?

The mirror shape is 1974 onwards but they were early impact bumper cars ... this presents as pre-impact (pre 1973) so which bit is modified ?

The wheels look after market so I would say it's a 2.7 or possibly a 3.0litre ?

'Stands up to be knocked down

I’m going with later shell fitted with earlier bumpers on the basis of how ‘Neat’ the rear window fit is. It looks a lot baggier on earlier cars

The Carrera 3.0 had wider arches, being a narrow body body, it’s a 2.7. I recon it’s a ‘77 2.7 that’s been backdated
