I just got off the phone to the local Rares outlet and they said that the lower rear 1/4 rust repair sections aren't made for FC Sedans?
Surely this is a common area for rust?
Are there any alternatives?

Thanks FC427, time is an issue at the moment though.
I guess I'll just have to go out and buy an oxy bottle now  Grin

HI Stinky save your money on the oxy bottle I have a small set of slip rollers that might help if you live close to Blacktown FC427

That's a generous offer Mark, but I think at the current price of petrol a 2,000 mile round-trip to collect it and another to bring it back might make it not quite so cost-effective. Glenn's in Adelaide. Undecided

When 2BRITE was rebuilt Rares supplied FB/EK lower 1/4 panels which were slightly modified to suit for a perfect fit.
