Re: Upper rear hatch, replace, rebuild, find an good old one?
My previous frame was rusted so bad that the glass and frame were seperated from each other. I just replaced mine 2-3 weeks ago with one I found on ebay. The one I got is near perfect. No rust and I got it for 330 shipped. I called rovers north and atlantic british for about 4-6 months and their prices went up dramatically. Rovers north had new oem in stock for $1500 and aluminum for $700. I was also told that the aluminum replacement took a long time to put together because of all the small pieces that come with it. Then you also have to buy the handle lock seperately. I have no experience with buying from overseas. Hopefully that is a better option but i clicked on the link from someone elses reply and it said out of stock.
Try "Motorcars Ltd" out of Houston Texas 800-338-5238

I just moved from Orlando, Florida to Beaumont, Texas and I was never referred to "Motorcars Ltd". It's like nobody knew about this place.
If you want to check back to your post frequently I will check around for you as well and let you know if I find something decent out there.
