Wanted to buy: Early Bay rear hatch

Post by anotherbluebus » Sun Sep 04, 2011 12:56 pm

Hoping to find an early rear hatch in the Portland area. Have a rusty one if you want to trade for a good one :pirate:

Please PM with pics, price, condition, whatever.

Thanks!

skindaddio: thanks for the offer. I found one at Trafton's this afternoon. It's a little bubbly in a spot or two, but I think it will work out if we can carve the bad places out.

thanks... it's like rear hatch central station over here. I have the rusty original, a marginal one that the PO included, a really nice one off a '74 that uses the later latch & won't work, and the one I picked up today.
