Reproduction panels (1 Viewer)

Good day.

Looking at a 60 which needs some work, the rear quarters and arches are rotted out, thankfully pattern panels are available for this area and that will save a LOT of time working metal, I've however not yet come across any panels for the inner parts, ie the wheeltub area facing onto the rear arch, and also the ''boot drop'' ie the panel that runs down 90 degrees from the rear floor (behind the rear wheel area) and which the lower rear quarter panel welds onto.
Do these exist or is it a case of beating my own from plate?

Cheers

Michael

As far as I know, only the outer panels are made. If your inner wheel tub area is rotten, you're on your own.

or find a good donor body and hack away for what you need.

I think every 60 I've seen thats in such a condition that its donor candidate has far worse rot than this thing.

It's quite a bit of work to cut a quarter and inner fender well and replace into a new vehicle. The C post is sandwiched between 3 different layers and spot welded together. You might save yourself a lot of work by simply cutting out the rust and welding patches in the wheel well.
