I think that's what I'll try. Keep the original wheel arch if at all possible, and rebuild the flat part. Then build the support flange out to meet it.deano wrote:This is how I would do it. Remove the paint to see how far the rot goes...

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

Don't forget to post lots of pics !
By the way, I have tooling for all those pieces if you need to borrow any of it just call... I think I made up the pieces for one complete side but I only managed to find one part of it so far. Anyway, you'll see what you need once you remove the paint and start to take it apart...

Hi Rob,
If it's of any use to you these parts are about to be removed from my LWB.
One is metal and the other not so much (!) and both yours to do with as you will

Re: Wing repair panel needed?
Is that tooling to make the flange/bracket that welds on to the wing, or the one that welds on to the body? If I remember rightly you were selling a body-side panel at the swap meet, with the bottom sawn off.deano wrote: By the way, I have tooling for all those pieces if you need to borrow any of it just call...
