280Zone Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 I have one but it's not for sale, I have looked at getting a mold made to make more but it is rather expensive. Az Z car wants to sell all of his molds in one deal not seperately : ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Those two hatches do not look alike,to me. The oddz1.jpg looks like he has modified the existing rear window opening. The arizonazcar unit looks like it has no metal breeching across the lowest part of the hatch. The oddz1 must have something there to attach the spoiler to. The oddz1, looks like a simple do-it-yourself project. Remove the rear window and build in a "wedge" to fill the hole. One could use metal or fiberglass and still save the weight over the big safety glass. My 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleek Z Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 These Pantera style hatch replacements date back many years and I believe more than one design was sold. What's kind of desturbing about them is how little cargo space is left over under the hatch after the fiberglass insert is installed. I have photographed several Z constructed in the late 70's that had them. One can be seen on my site at in the 2000 West Coast Nationals section I also photographed another style at Z Fest 2002 in Fremont, CA. Young owner from Washington state discussed design differences of his at length. I'll publish photos of his design later on at my ZPARTS.COM website.

Cargo space? , don't need no stinking cargo space! That's what trucks are for I guess one could always put a roof rack on TIm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 As Orange Crush pointed out: "that the hatch does not look that hard to fabricate". I plan to fabricate one for my 250 GTO project out of flat sheet fiberglass cut and bonded to the angled shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zachb55 Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 that is a sweet hatch design, ive seen tons of pictures of them before but the only ones i have on my site have already been posted here oh well, i would like to see what that looks like from inside, but i just dont think it would go with the rest of my car's flowage.... -Zach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280Zone Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 If you need pictures of the Pantera rear deck I have a few from other angles. Just drop me an email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
