BMAC Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I have a 1976 280z with the left corner rear hatch latch panel completely rusted out. I am looking for a piece of the rear hatch panel that includes where the weatherstripping mounts. The area requested is highlighted by the red box, more specifically the area outlined in yellow. I am located in the Panhandle of Florida Thanks for your assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grannyknot Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 It might be a better idea to replace the whole thing, https://tabcoparts.com/1234-42395.html Chances are if one side is rusty then the other side is not far behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverdone Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Just know that that tabco panel won't get you the lip that the weather stripping attaches to. You may have to end up making that out of blank sheetmetal. Either that or you magically find one that isn't totally rusted out on a donor car that someone is literally parting out that hasn't also been rusted to hell and gone.

BMAC Posted November 20, 2019 Author Share Posted November 20, 2019 I already have that panel to replace the current one. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonH Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 I searched for over 2 years for a non rsuted part out.... no luck. Im now fabricating my own from sheet metal. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
