I've just started to strip down my XJS to repair the rust around the wheel arches. I have new replacement wing panels but have come across more rust around the lower quarters and the corners under the rear lights. I'm hoping someone can help as I can't find a replacement L/H lower quarter and a repair panel for the lower light panel.

Re: Replacement body panels
Welcome to the forum!
Which car is it? I'm pretty sure the design is different between FL and HE. Some pictures are nice / helpful btw
The lower rear quarters are an absolute classic - mine are gone too on the driver side. Keep an active search on eBay and contact breakers if their panel is any good.

options 2 here , this guy will cut out good sections for you
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SIMPLYPERFORM ... xyyF5RO5Ud
jacking point and radius repair sections ( i have some spares of these to )
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-JAGUAR-XJ ... Swqu9VQp0V
a bit of lateral thinking will also gain you repair sections, door bottoms will act as front wing repair sections, as the profile is the same, just as it is for in front of the back wheels, doors are cheap to buy and cut up for repair panels

Re: Replacement body panels
I'm just North of Aberdeen, travelling is not a big problem. If you could dig out some pics of what you have that would be good.

Re: Replacement body panels
I have managed to get all the panels I need bar one. I am still having problems finding the N/S inner wing panel RTC 1639 can anyone help with this or point me in the right direction.
Re: Replacement body panels
Good luck with the work. I am personally looking for a new front wing for a 1978 XJS if you know the whereabouts ?
