thriller Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 Hi guys Need the panel that I'm holding below Preferably cut about 10cm higher up than where I cut mine though. Only thing I need to do before I can lay some color in the engine bay so if you've got a 2+2 sitting in the back yard let me know! Want one rust-free. Surface stuff is okay but if it's pitting I'd rather pass. If you can see rust from the outside there's a pretty good chance the inside looks like mine. If you're interstate, happy to get a courier to pick up from your house. Quote
nizm0zed Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 Id imagine that any you cut off another car are going to be pretty similar to what your holding? That looks like a pretty simple shape (and hidden from view when assembled), would be a good contender to learn how to sandbag form your own shapes. From my understanding of it, its not too hard for the average guy to learn. Im sure Scoota/Lurch/Ledge should be able to shed more light on that. Quote

I'd also agree that if a car is being cut to bits, this area is probably gone too, just hoping though. I was planning to have a crack at making it, but thought I'd check out here if anyone had something first. Biggest kicker is I had this part months ago, before I decided that keeping a nose cut would be a waste of space and sent it to scrap serves me right! Quote
Scoota G Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 The end where the drain hole is located is a little more difficult to fabricate but having said that it is hidden from view. Doesn't have to be exact. Quote
Brabham Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 You could also beadblast and repair what you have. I agree that any one you find is likely to be in a similar if not worse condition. If it is not pitted through it should be fine, can also tack up any pinholes once you blast it. Cheers Quote
