Dan Juday Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Guys, and gals, I need some help finding a body panel. Has to be at a self serve yard in the Sacramento/Central Valley/Bay Area region. The "we pull it for you" yards want too much for body cuts. What I'm looking for is a straight right rear corner off a Z32, a.k.a. '90-'96 300ZX. Specificly, the sheetmetal behind and about an inch around the taillight. Just tell me where it is and I'll go do the work. Help me out and I'll send you pics of what I'm up to.

Sumo Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 When you say you need the corner sheetmetal, do you want the housing where the tailight used to sit? I know of a 90 Z32 for parts but which part do you need and how to ship this thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. If you draw a line around the taillight about an inch away all the way around and cut it out, that's what I want. Just the metal, not the light or anything else.

Sumo Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 Ok, let me see if the sheet metal is clean and how much he wants for it. I'll let you know Monday night. By the way there are no taillights on it so it should make the job easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Juday Posted January 20, 2003 Author Share Posted January 20, 2003 Thanks Sumo, I'll be waiting for your post. I'd just planned on finding one locally, but if you can help and the price is fair this is simpler for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Juday Posted January 21, 2003 Author Share Posted January 21, 2003 No sweat Sumo. Randy, I found the ad. Tried calling him tonight and couldn't get through. I'll try tomorrow. Big thanks. Also, big thanks to Josh who e-mailed me. I work in the central valley so if I can get to this Modesto guy I can do it after work. But if not your tip is my ace in the hole for next weekend. I should have tried this a long time ago, HybridZ bros always come through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Juday Posted January 22, 2003 Author Share Posted January 22, 2003 Well, the guy in Modesto has his phone "temporarily" disconnected. So I decided to go home tonight and click the "e-mail him" button and poof, the ad is gone. Well looks like I'm going to Milpitas Saturday unless someone else here has another lead.

Dan Juday Posted January 26, 2003 Author Share Posted January 26, 2003 Success! Thanks to all who offered help. I cut it out of a white '90 300ZX this morning in Milpitas. $10 for part, $20 for gas. Well worth it. The winner is Josh. Watch your e-mail box for pics buddy. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aaron Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Dan, you can't tease us and leave us hanging like this after the great tail light thread. What are you up to ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
