Title: Rear end panel replacement Post by: dougie on May 27, 2015, 02:40:37 PM Hi guys wondering if anyone does a replacement panel for a rear end or does anyone have a donor panel they'd be willing to part with?
Thanks Title: Re: Rear end panel replacement Post by: mcl1959 on May 27, 2015, 10:00:12 PM Dougie, are you talking about the panel below the boot lid on a sedan?
Not real clear what you want. Ken Title: Re: Rear end panel replacement Post by: dougie on May 28, 2015, 06:23:58 AM Yes Ken, the panel below the boot that goes between the rear tail lights and incorporates the fuel filler.
Thanks Title: Re: Rear end panel replacement Post by: mcl1959 on May 28, 2015, 06:44:15 PM No repro available for this panel that I know of so it will be a good second hand one you need. These have rust very commonly under the rubber seal so you will need to check carefully before cutting one out.
Ken Title: Re: Rear end panel replacement Post by: dougie on May 28, 2015, 09:02:41 PM Thanks for your help Ken. I've got a donor car i could use but was hoping to make a couch out of the rear end, oh well i've got to many projects on the go anyway :-)

Rust in the donor car is minimal but the panel isn't perfectly straight as we had a rollover in it. I'll be back down your way in around 4 weeks. If your going to cut your rear end anyway it might be worth me coming for a look? |
