Reproduction Rear Wheel Arches?
Posted by Tobs On 2008/5/30 10:44:36
Hi all,
It's time for me to start taking care of the rear wheel arches that are rusting again. I guess after 15 years or so the first restoration is starting to fade. The rear wheel arches are bubbling/rusting and I might even have to do the drivers side rocker panel/threshold outside.
Is any reproduction sheetmetal available on the market, or is this all to be self fabricated?
Car is a 1953 Clipper delux club sedan. Here's a couple of pics so you get an idea of the extent of rust. I guess it would also be possible to fab the sheetmetal since I don't have the lines like the 51 cars do.
Thanks,
Mike
