"Targa top, or targa for short, is a semi-convertible car body style
with a removable roof section and a full width roll bar behind the
seats. The rear window can be fixed or removable. The word targa comes
from the 1966 Porsche 911 Targa (which itself was named after the
Targa Florio road race), which popularised this body style, though the
first production car with this system as an option was actually
released five years before, namely the 1961 Triumph TR4.
In common usage, any piece of metal or trim which rises up from the
side of a car and continues in an uninterrupted line over the roof and
down the other side may be called a targa band, or sometimes a
wrapover band. "
