OzyDuster74 chassis connector questions!!
I looked high and low for drivers quarter panel but was getting ridiculous postage fee quotes or not wiling to even try. However i finally managed to get a AMW quarter panel from Year One and was a strange experience. As purchased it for full amount and shipping, to then wait weeks and weeks as they had to get stock in. Should mention with shipping was nearl 3500 to Australia.
It finally arrived after months and had to pay another 800 to release from customs haha.
Original panel was removed and time to see what lay behind.
Some one had tried to pull the quarter damage and damaged the space frame, as looks like put a bolt or something through it trying to pull the panel. The space frame was repaired with a new welded in section to patch hole and all behind the quarter acid washed after getting into bare metal
The only proper rust was just behind the wheel near the drain hole so cut out and repaired. Then all primed ready for new panel
