Nice work Charlie. We don't know how lucky we are down here. There is no way anyone would repair a car that bad here. You would just go and buy a good rust free car and throw the old shell away. Admittedly it wouldn't be a type 49 and they are becoming harder to find now but if you look hard enough they are still around. Fortunately I have a few for spares myself.

are all the panels expressed steel panels charlie? im needing new rad support panels for my van....how good a fit are they? savage work man...keep it up....keep the pics coming....

[Charlie Chisholm]

Some genuine panels arron

The rad support panels i fitted were genuine ford

All remanufactured panals have to be fettaled to fit, barring there inner wings , which were perfect.
