Car: a 91 rs convertible and a Iroc z convertible Engine: 305 tbi, and 350 tpi Transmission: 700r4 | Convertible Parts Guys,
their is a camaro convertible at a local junkyard, its a 1989 Iroc. i know how hard is to find parts for these so if anyone needs something i might be able to snag it. i know this is not the classifieds but just want to alert all the convertible guys, since i own 3 and know how hard it is to find parts. they are so RARELY seen in the junk yards! so, parts i saw it had good:
trunk-
tonneau cover-
plastic moldings on end of tonneau cover (by seat belts)
Plastic moldings on rear of door, (hold the rear panel in place)
rear panels (on convertibles only) have been cut slightly to fit speakers it seems
spoiler (with brake light)
exterior side moldings leading to spoiler (the pieces that lead from door to trunk)
cable & hardware to release convertible top
convertible top frame- in good condition (southern california!!)
if im missing anything you guys think you might need let me know, just send offers of what you WILL pay for the items, prior to me going out and removing the items. i live down the street from the junkyard and can take pics if need be. if the offer will cover what i think the cost is and a beer for me (LOL) then its yours! im just trying to help, this website has been A LOT of help to me! thanks guys! |

Yes, the little rods that flip bow 2 up when your lowering the roof. When sitting in the seats, they are right above your shoulder. I can get pics if needed. |

the two trim pieces at the end of the tonneau cover and the weatherstripping are in good shape. i actually brought those home, i can post pics.
the plastic piece which you are talking about that goes by the handles -on the top- was broken. (this was the first peice i checked since mine is broken to)
the cables and brackets etc. were all their- no idea what they're worth. i'll pick them up this afternoon. and post pics. |

Car: a 91 rs convertible and a Iroc z convertible Engine: 305 tbi, and 350 tpi Transmission: 700r4 | Re: Convertible Parts the interior is grey, so all the trim pieces are black. I'll try an post pics of them. i just dont want this to turn into a thread that should be in 'classifieds' im just trying to offer whats available here, i see alot of good pieces in junkyards that sell for way too much on ebay, or f-body sites. Maybe us Cali guys take things forgranted, for instance, when i was at the junkyard i saw a dash for a trans am that was in near MINT condition, but i own 3 camaros, and didnt bother with it. i just realised maybe i shoulda got it to help someone out, instead of letting it go to waste. I'm not trying to become rich of these parts LOL. |

the center spoiler section is their and it has all the studs i believe, but 1 of them is loose, it spins freely. will need repair, the rest is good. the car is red by the way. i bought a spoiler in the past for my buddies T-TOP and the things cost (if i remember correctly) 70-75 bucks. i will confirm this when i return to the junkyard. I will pick this piece up anyways, if you want it, its available if not i'll list it in classifieds, but you asked first. ill post pics as soon as im able. |

Car: 1991 Z28 Convertible Engine: 305 Transmission: 5 Speed | Re: Convertible Parts I wouldn't mind having a few back up pieces, tonneau release cables, tonneau cover (vinyl covered piece or the entire thing), the bow trim pieces, any good weatherstipping from the top or where the door closes.
I live in Sacramento and am down there once in a while with business and can pick them up. Let me know what you have!
Sorry I saw this post so late or I would have tried to hit you before you went to the yard.
