Door skins

[akzcar]

So I am putting together a 75 280 and I have a 77 parts car. Turns out that the doors do not interchange so now I need 75 door skins does anyone make them?

What is the issue with the old skin? How did you remove it? I believe all of the skins are the same, the internals are different and the door strikes are different I believe...

The whole back of the doors are different but it turned out that the skins were the same. I had to replace the skin because of copious amounts of cancer. I ended up removing both skins with a screwdriver and hammer and installed the good used skin from the 77 onto the 75 door shell. Just used a skinning hammer and dolly for installation.

So you're good now? I was going to recommend what it sounds like you already did...

Do all 240z 260z and 280z 2 seaters have the same skin? see picture..  the lock sits on the same spot?  i'm not sure..

The skin on my pic. has No: 80151-N3400  a 260z (for euro) number.. Question is does it fit a 240z?

I have a set for the 240z they we modified them for light weight race doors and ended up not using them. I am sure they could still be used as skins. JLP

Sent you a message about these.  I could potentially use if they are still available.

Your in LA?  Seems to me like bringing water to the sea.. these skins are very hard to come by in the Netherlands.. In the states you can't find a skin?

I'm not in a hurry to sell but these are new ones .. over 200 euro /piece..?  i don't know. not investigated yet..

I have not found any new skins in the U.S.  There are some being sold in Australia.  I have a lead on a used skin, and I hope to avoid shipping from overseas.  I will certainly let you know if I want yours.

Not so fast..  I'm restoring a 280zx and still have a early 240z... it needs new skins or doors.. but i'm getting a bit tired... so.. maybe you can convince me to sell..
