This is a possible group buy for a lightweight fiberglass rear hatch for a 4 door L body.
About the only info I have right now:
A stock hatch weighs ~40 lbs. We are hoping for about 10lbs.
Target price is $400. This definitely depends on how many people we get on board.
We have 2 people confirmed as of now.
I know this guys work well, and it will be nicely built.
There will be no holes in it as of now. (Wioer hole, washer fluid hole, 3rd brake light holes, key hole) We may add a key hole, depending on final construction.
Plan is to still have it seal to stock weatherstrip.
Has to be streetable.
Will come in gel coat only (no paint)
Proabaly will not include Lexan for rear window. May be able to use stock glass if desired.
Guy is mocking up and working on pricing. Depending on how many people we can get really depends on cost. Estimated is $400 to $800.
Any interest?
