Jim Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I was at a junk yard in Phoenix today and there is a very nice Reatta convertible there with a very nice tan top. The weather stripping was pretty good also. I am sure this whole assembly could be purchased quite cheaply. $ 100 or less for a nice top is a pretty good deal. Take out a couple of bolts and get a nice top, framework and weather stripping. When I moved the drivers seat forward there was the complete portfolio with the pen, tire gauge and flashlight. The yard is the U Pull & Pay at 2501 W buckeye rd in Phoenix There was also another convertible in the U Pull on Broadway but a nasty car and picked over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azreattacollector Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I’ve taken some parts off the red convertible. It has a decent top as well but you’re right, not much left inside (thanks to me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share Posted January 10, 2020 I went back yesterday and got the top assembly and the drivers side door panel. I have a person that can bring them to MN in February.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted January 17, 2020 Author Share Posted January 17, 2020 Mike, I stopped by there again yesterday as I was looking for a part for my daughters S10 plow truck and see the car is getting pretty well stripped. I also stopped yesterday in their other yard in Peoria and as I was walking through it I was thinking I have been in probably 50 U Pull its around the country and this was the messiest I have ever seen and all the cars were pretty well picked over. After I left you the other day I went to the really junky yard up the street near the water tower and got an IPC for a '90 but have no way of testing it. If you see this post, could you email me your phone number and maybe I can test it in one of your cars? Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
