[reverendzed]

Hi guys - looking for a passenger side door card for a 240z - not fussed about condition of upholstery as it will be recovered - anything considered.

Thanks in advance.

Not sure if dale had one on his parts car. What if you used a 2+2 on and shortened it?

Rev - I might be able to help find you 1 if you get really desperate seen a couple for sale in Japan, only problem is good second hand ones can be quite expensive. Which almost makes it worth buying the pair (NOS) that rare spares have.

Thanks Gav have been looking for someone doing fibreglass door cards as I'm in the same boat as Rev with only the drivers side...

No problem please give us your feedback if you buy a set and install new skins on them?

No but I was looking at the option, but I managed to get a good pair of second hand door cards for both my S30z's. However if I was to do this again I'd look at the fiberglass backing and new material like the link above. Simply because the masonite warps with moisture and where the clips go on the rear side the masonite always deteriorates or breaks.

 

With the cost of OEM units being anywhere from $600 - $1000 depending on where you shop this seems like a sensible more durable alternative, of course if a concourse restoration is your goal. Well you can only really opt for OEM. But maybe nobody would notice if you didn't? .

Interesting thing I found out yesterday is that the 260Z Coupe door cards I have fit the series 1 240Z perfectly (obviously holes are in a different place) but with some very light mods they will work fine.  I'm going to see how I can take some moulds from these and see if i can't make something local.  I painted the back of the cards with POR15 which has given them some real added strength and should stop further warping and deterioration.

Sealing the back of the door cards is a really clever idea, minimal cost and removes the risk of any further damage due to moisture ingress.
