Passenger Side Rear Wing

[Nick Jackson (2)]

Big day today.   Restarted the 'other' project for the winter i.e. the GT6.    

Opened up the LH rear wing, which was frilly/missing at the bottom sill and behind the wheel arch, and here's what I found!   Not bad I reckon.  Bit of work to do at the bottom but could have been much worse.  Here's some pic's attached.  

I'm going to a get a new complete rear wing, but when looking at picture 2481 what else do I need internally?  Is it an "Inner B Post Lower Repair Section"?  Difficult to tell from the Rimmers diagram.

Thanks.

Yep, looking at the picture you mention that is indeed the inner B post repair panel. If I may make a wee suggestion, but it may be worth your while contacting the Likes of Canleys, James Paddocks etc (the smallker companies) to see what their prices are for body panels, I have generally found tham to be a lot cheaper than Rimmers and Moss!!

Also, check out the condition of your sills, I found it would have been alot easier to have welded the repair section to the sill strengthener without the wing in place!! (I was working on a MkIV Spitty mind, however looks vary similar to me!!)

I've got all of the sills, a full LH floorpan and cross-member.   Will check out Canleys for the panels and a few others, but I'm wondering whether a repair the bottom of the B post and rearmost inner wing is all that's required apart from the full outer wing.

Have a good look at the outer edge of the floor pan and also around that brackety thingy at the back of the floor pan, these were the two main areas of rust with mine!!
