wigenOut-S30 Posted June 23, 2004 Author Share Posted June 23, 2004 I have called zcarparts.com they are looking. Is danny's datsuns the ones who ripped some people off in the past? Any one with a reference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike kZ Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 How about Z-Barn, 1-800-247-2793, or All Z East (not sure if they are still around) 1-800-533-5659 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonfly Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 When a bone-head in an suv backed into my wifes Z, then admited guilt I was able to show the cost of replacement parts (which you have already done) so they just cut me a check for the total amount plus 3 day car rental. I went to the loacal wrecking yard cherry picked the parts I needed and made the repairs myself. Since you could possibly get a door from people on here it may benifet you to try to just get a check from them and fix it yourself.

wigenOut-S30 Posted June 23, 2004 Author Share Posted June 23, 2004 I called roger at Zbarn earlier today and he called me back with good news. He found me a perfect used door. No rust. so I think I might be set. the only problem with getting a estimate for a new door is that they have not been available for a while now and no body shop will give an estimate on a new door if they dont have a price to go by. At least now I can get the ball rolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted June 28, 2004 Author Share Posted June 28, 2004 Well she is at the body shop now. This is in reference to my Z being hit in the passenger side door by somone packing out. I found a door from a friend over in MS actually. so I got it for FREE!!.. it has like zero rust on it as well. I was stoked and I am getting another small dent in my front fender fixed for basically free. And get this the door I got was red.. but when I took the inside skin apart the original color is green. Now I just cannot wait to get her back from surgery.. UPDATE...Well just got a call from the body shop. looks like the used door is chopped full of bondo and has rust issues that where hidden. He has a metal working specialist there that can fix my door and will only need very small amount of filler to get everything perfect. My door has no rust so I think I will go that route.

Guest HolyLlama Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 I noticed you lived in Alabama. It may be a little too late, but if you need any other parts, you can try Merrill's in Piedmont, Alabama. It'd be a good bit of a drive (it's in Northeast Alabama) but they're the only place I know of with Zs in the junkyard, probably more than 30 first gen Zs. They're number is (256) 447 6611 or (256) 447 2511. Or if you need something I might could try shipping it to you if it doesn't cost an arm and a leg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
