John Greenslade Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 I recently replaced the drivers side rocker panel. As a first time novice it took me two weekends, but fits perfect. I only have minor damage at the front of passenger side rocker and some damage under rocker (same as on drivers side where I cut and welded repair section). My time saving thought is to cut out affected area, repair inner damage and then reweld the repaired cut out section back in. Any comments.

geotek Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 I'm about to buy a '73 240 for $250 for my long-delayed V8 project. The body panels, firewall and doors look great, but the drivers side rocker panel is shot. Where did you find your replacement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Greenslade Posted July 24, 2002 Author Share Posted July 24, 2002 You can get them from Tabco in Ohio. Phone nu,ber 1-800-782-5226. I did the drivers side and have decided to change passenger side also and have just ordered. If you change you will also have to order the "Rear Quarter Lower Front Section" - basically the front of rear fender that attaches to the rocker.

geotek Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 Thanks John G! I found their website at ftp://www.rustrepair.com/datsunz.pdf They have Tabco body panels, actually cheaper than I expected, too. They also have a few interior parts. I will definately check them out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
