Why Is It Hard To Get Replacement Panels?

[gav240z]

Gav, which part is a roof turret? I've been looking on google images and all i get is a guy with a machine gun.

 

Also I've read there were approx 2,360 Australian 240z's. How many 260's & 260 2+2 came to Australia?

 

Roof turret = roof skin / panel. Basically if someone puts a sunroof in an S30z you want a roof turret with no hole in it.

 

Probably the wrong thread for a discussion on numbers. I've seen numbers before but no idea how reliable they really are. Here is a few threads to mull over.

" Too many cars been parted out purely because of a hole in the roof..... "

Well if that's the case then the sooner a manufacturer can produce a replacement roof skin the better, before any more disappear.

Much as I enjoy my sunroof I'd buy a full skin to salt away for the future when I give my car the full resto treatment.
