Datsun Roadster Forum-311s.org

I scored this off craigslist the other week and was wondering about the rear window seal and how far back the glass sits, i have noticed water sitting in the channel and not draining away. Am i missing something or do the rear windows sit counter sunk like that.
Here are a couple of pics. It's a little hard to see the profile, sorry.

That's a really interesting top, I like it!
It looks like the design is inherent to hold water to me, the gasket is a simple one that looks like you need to be facing uphill for good drainage!

I hope you keep that roadster covered! Those giant rain holes that used to be taillights look like a lot of rust waiting to happen in the trunk and lower quarters!!

Years ago, a friend had one of these for his MG. It had padded vinyl over the fiberglass, looked great. I recall the back window being recessed.

parrish top pics here let me know if you need more

Nice score. First dibs if you want to sell, Rory.

I think it's safe to assume i'll be getting buried with that hardtop . Unless you buy the whole car

OK how much for the whole car and top????

Hehehehehehehehe.....nice one, Kevin.

I'll play Make me an offer

$200, but you have to deliver it and reinstall the tail lamps...

That sounds like a smoking deal Sid, the tail lights would probably be the easiest thing i have to do to the roadster. I'll sell you the old broken hardtop sitting next to it for $200 (because i know how much you like these)

Hey, you asked for a price. You can't expect the first bid to be the final bid. Oh, that red smiley lowers my opening price to $125 delivered (you can leave the lights in the trunk)

I have a hardtop similar to the one that you have leaned up by the fence, but it is in California, and I am in Florida. Now if I could only figure out how to get it here from there...

Fair enough That hard top has seen better days, it needs a good fiberglass expert to fix it up.

I will need more details about the car to play fair.
