B body Floor pans

Does anyone in the UK hold panels in stock ?

Now I've started grinding back the filler and sealant, used on the floor pans, there are quite a few rotten areas. Ive started to fab a few bits up but it would be easier if I could get a couple rear panels in and just cut it all out

No one will have them in stock. Give Mark at WASP a call, he will be able to ship one in quickly and at a good price.

Have a go at making them...16g steel sheet, angle grinder with 1mm cutting disc and a bolster chisel...its fun and doesn't take long to do!

That looks a good job Steve

Thanks Dave. Its not the neatest job ever but it was great fun making the panels and welding them in. Thanks to Blue who very kindly gave me his old MIG welder, I learned the basics of welding and managed to do quite a bit on my old Fury. I did the whole trunk floor, drop offs, outer rear lower quarters and the panels in front of the rear wheel arches. Cost me some time, bit of welding gas and £30 worth of 16g sheet metal.....very satisfying

Thankfully had access to Autofetishs' bead roller for the trunk....it saved me a fortune in panels and was a great way to learn...

If I can do it, believe me, anyone can!

Definitely the way to go especially with the current exchange rate. Take a bit longer but lots of new skills to learn
