Looking for clean roof in PNW / West Coast

Recommended Posts

I'm in search of a donor shell with a clean roof I can cut out. I'm in Portland OR. Willing to travel within about a 5hr radius and extract it myself. 

 

Ideally with sunroof. 

 

Thanks,

But all roof rust is not the same. In particular, metallic colors that were not re-painted slowly lost their clearcoat and then base coat, leaving exterior rust, as shown on the Polaris cars in both 2002iii’s and tech71’s posts. 

 

Below are a few photos of my original-owner Polaris ‘76 in 2014 and 2015, prior to the car’s Big Re-Paint. That’s 100%-original, garage-kept Glasurit on there! The car’s re-paint confirmed that it is an extremely low-rust example. I’d bet those non-sunroof cars, in particular, have little or no rust on the underside of the roof.

 

Regards,

 

Steve

I asked about that passenger side turn signal but got no answer?  Maybe I can buy it off you????? 

 

He's not willing to part it and $1200 is a lot for a roof. I'd feel bad chopping it from a decent shell.
