Panel suppliers

[Baldry1500]

Hi,
Can anyone recommend any suppliers for a driver's side rear floor panel for a Spitfire?

I've tried Radford panels (don't stock or manufacture)
Rimmers only supply whole side at £120
Canley are the same.
Spitfire Graveyard don't have any either.

I am based in Northampton, so local to me would be terrific but anywhere that has a panel would be great.

Thanks,
James

Hi,

I tried to get just the back bit for mine last year, only place that could do the rear half was radford but it was a 6 week lead time and needed it asap so had to buy the whole drivers side.

Go for a complete panel, and chop out what you need.

The old types (steel craft, but they supply the new ones too?) was crap  8)

Cutting out what i need is my last resort. Looking more and more a reality now  :(

Cut out what you need. Put the left over front piece on eBay. Most people want the front rather than the back....

Are you sure the front of your car is ok (above the front outrigger)?

My GT6 is having the front footwells done in the next few weeks, so I will have two back sections spare after then

It's just the rear section, took seat out at the weekend and was amazed it had passed MOT in May. Basically it was rotten around the plug hole under drivers seat. The rest is fine, problem is the rust has gone up the lip from the plug hole so a flat plate weld is no possible.
dimtavies - i'd have loved to have taken these bits off your hands but have apparently "Only 18 days, 04 hours, 12 minutes, 29 seconds until the Round Britain Reliability Run! " So time is not on my side. I have just ordered a drivers side and as suggested will be selling front half on ebay shortly.
