Rear wheel arch repair panel

Postby timwingate » Mon Oct 30, 2017 6:44 pm

Does anybody know if there is a rear wheel arch repair panel available for the classic S Type? I can find the entire lower half rear wing but this is much more metal than I need and it isn't exactly cheap.

If all else fails, have you considered asking a local fabrication company to make one? You would probably have to take the piece you take out as a pattern part, but it could be a relatively economical way forward

Hello Tim,

if you haven't already, have a check on the Martin Robey website, if he doesn't do one then I don't think they will be available. Do check other repair sections that may be close to what you require and can be reworked to do the job?

Thanks guys, I'm going to get the local bodyshop to fabricate a piece unless the rot is more extensive than we think, in which case Martin Robey sells the half wing panel significantly cheaper than anywhere else I've found (about £200)

Did you get a repair panel? My car is in need of the same and as it is a panel with lots of curves, it is pretty hard to fabricate.
