I'm in the process of having a latch part made by a machinist. The part is shown here: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/attachments/348-355-sponsored-bradan/711285d1208322109-targa-top-latch-broke-ferrari-270.jpg It's part of the latch that holds the top down. If anyone is interested in having one made by this machinist, post it here. Not sure of the price yet. John
John Are you the guy that reached out to me to look into this? I just posted a moment ago and then saw your post. I'll step back if your going to make this happen. Ron By the way, I'm sure I can make these if your machinist fails. I'd also be interested in knowing the cost. Good luck!
No I'm not. So the guy I'm talking about hasn't seen the part yet but says he can make anything that's why I was interested in how many people would want one. If he was going to make one he might as well make a dozen.
Ifd you can make this part I'd be interested. What happened to mine is a story from hell. Took the broken parts, including both almost complete latches, except one of the handles, to a local machinist a couple of months ago to see if he could make the part that broke. After a 5 week wait I went in to tell him to forget it and to get my parts back and guess what? He lost them! So now I'm f@#$ed! If you can make them I would definitely be interested.
Based on the picture, I sure I can make them but I need and example of an oem part. If you or someone else can provide an example I will gladly provide you with the first set of parts as a token of appreciation. Can anyone provide me with an oem piece. Even if it is broken? I'd be happy to work on this. Ron Frohock
