Default looking for a piece of roof

I'm looking to get a full roof pannel from a non sunroof car to replace the messed up sunroof in the car i'm restoring. The sunroof is acually 1/2 inch out of square I guess the body guy was drunk that day.I'm also looking for atleast one headliner in black also so if anyone is scrapping a body shell or has a roof they will sell drop me a line please.

Thanks

I just sold a parts car with a perfect non-sunroof roof. I think the new owner just wanted electrical parts from the car. The car is in Florida. Let me know if it interests you and I''ll try to set it up. I believe the going rate for a non-sunroof roof is about $250 or so.

Do you want the pieces of the sunroof or the roof panel without the sunroof hole?

Yep, I have a '79 non-sunroof roof available. I can freight it to you for $75-$140ish depending on where you are located (not including price of the roof). Send me an email at mark@theninesource.com if interested.

thanks mark but i think i'm going to make some cardboard profiles from one of my other cars here and take a walk at the bone yard all i really need is the sheetmetal from the top i just can't justify paying close to 400 bones just to throw most of it in the scrap bin i tried the pcar parts guy in TO he wanted 4 bills plus shipping this car just isn't worth that if i can't find anything local we will just go with the messed up sunroof as is i was just throwing it out there to see if there was anything close to me in canada
thanks everyone i will keep you posted
