Poundz9oh9 Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Anybody know whose car this is? Or where he got that hatch done? (alt+p) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 It's the "Pantera Hatch" that used to be offered by Arizona Z. They are no longer in the fiberglass business, so they are no longer available. http://www.arizonazcar.com/ Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poundz9oh9 Posted April 4, 2003 Author Share Posted April 4, 2003 Well damn . I actually saw that picture a few months ago and wanted to find out more about it. But then forgot where I found it. Then alas!, there it was right where I left it. I wonder if I'll see it at the MSA show at the end of the month, and if he'll notice it's missing when I leave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poundz9oh9 Posted April 4, 2003 Author Share Posted April 4, 2003 I want one. Any idea what they went for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280Zone Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I have the original one that AZ Z car used to make the molds from. Mater of fact that is my old black and white car on his site. I have checked into getting some made but it is too cost prohibitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poundz9oh9 Posted April 4, 2003 Author Share Posted April 4, 2003 I emailed the guy from the website to see how much he wanted for the mold. I have a friend that does fiberglass work and want to see if he's interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280Zone Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I tried buying the mold for over a year now. He is only interested in selling all of his molds, not just one at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poundz9oh9 Posted April 4, 2003 Author Share Posted April 4, 2003 damn, foiled again. How hard do you think it would be to fab one out of some sheet metal......? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280Zone Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I think that is what a few people are trying to do. This topic has come up several times and that "I'll try making one myself" has been the usual consensus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Want aZ Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Do you remember how much he was asking for the molds, as My Dad and little brother own a Fiberglass Business in Little Rock, they definately have the experience as my Dad is a Mechanical Engineer, and Former president of the National Fiberglass Manfacture Association...Was thinking I could buy the molds, have them shipped there and possible have them crank out the former body kits and Hatches???? Ive always liked the 280 YZ and the one with the 944 flairs as well...244>???? Just a thought.. Damon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280Zone Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I think he was wanting 30 something thousand. He has several molds and wants to sell everything at once. He told me some of the molds needed some work and he was not sure if he could find all of the molds. It was out of my price range and seemed a bit high for what you were getting. If I were you I would work with your relatives and start from scratch and build the molds you want. It sounds like you have a weealth of information to draw from.

Poundz9oh9 Posted April 4, 2003 Author Share Posted April 4, 2003 Well, I just got his email back...and it's not looking good. 32,000 for all of his molds and he won't sell them individually (just like it was said earlier in the post) ... Oh well, me being in So.Cal, I'll bet I can find a decent shop to do one for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Juday Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Everybody here knows how much I like fiberglass so believe me when I say this is better done in steel. I've seen one of these up close. This would be very easy to do in steel. Four easy bends and weld it in. Another piece to hold the rear window. Weld, grind, fill, sand. These are all flat sides. Fiberglass is great for compound curves. Steel is much easier for flat stuff. Side note: I bet AZ Z has about 32 molds. Even if some need some work that is not a bad price.

Dan Juday Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 Hey Poundz, $100k might be a good price for a new Diablo but I'm not buying one of those either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
