It is legit. It’s already been verified when it was removed to attempt to get it to work and level it. It is American Sunroof Corporation for sure.
If I do patch it over that is what we are going to do, only metal. It could then be opened back up later if parts come available.
Yes it’s manual crank. A 72 would be electric. I’m not sure if they are interchangeable. My panel is a big reason for contemplating closing it up. There would be more filler needed than I would be comfortable with using as it will probably crack.
Several things. The amount of filler needed will crack over time. The panel will not level with the roof because it needs parts that are not available. The roof will not operate because it needs parts that are not available.
Nope and nope. The car was restored when I bought it. All that stuff is long gone.
Mine is dented. I wish it was surface rust the size of a dime.
It doesn’t leak. It just won’t align correctly due to needing parts and the amount of filler required is going to crack over time. I am the next guy. Not selling, want to restore it correctly and keep it. Besides I will have way more $ invested when I am finished then it will ever be worth. But that’s usually how it goes.
Parts are not available that it needs. I’ve been fighting with this sunroof for over a year. The car now is at a third shop and everyone has messed with that sunroof. It’s starting to become a lost cause.
Thanks Delta, I’ve already been through that thread awhile ago and pursued all the recommendations. The last guy working on the sunroof had all this information too, including all the service manual attachments for the sunroof. He narrowed it down to two parts that were need but missing from the sunroof and those parts are not available. I even asked him about fabrication but he would need something to use for a template and the parts are missing.
