Does the 1971 rear hatch fit on the 1973 240z?

[Preecey240Z]

Hello does anyone know if the rear hatch from 1971/72 fits on the 73 or if it can be modified to fit easily? I've recently come across the resurrected classics website in which they sell the rear hatch, does anyone have any experience with this company? thanks.

Even 280z.
2+2 doesn’t fit

I knew the 2+2 doesn't fit, was just unsure about the others

The one linked won't look correct as it has vents. You want an unvented one.

You should be able to find one in the UK I would have thought . Max from resurrected classics is a top guy I have bought ;lots of stuff from him

Otherwise there is the option of a good quality fibreglass item-could be a useful diet project especially combined with a laminat 'glass'.

I could always fill them in right?

I'm sure one will show up in the UK eventually just looking at all my options for when I come to purchase a hatch.

fiberglass is an option I have considered but still unsure if I want to go the route with the build.
