Sourcing Body Panels

[Tom2000]

I've been given an amazing opportunity via my father to have the bodywork on my Spitfire completely rebuilt from the ground up, new metal were needed, inside outside spray. All I have to pay for is the paint and any body panels that need replacing. No labour costs.

I need to source new quarter panels for the bonnet as there is rust appearing on the seams, I also need to get a new boot floor (the rearest point not the whole thing), where is the best place to source these from?

A month away from having it all done but what colour do you think I should go for? BRG?

As long as they are heritage panels i think you will be safe getting them from anywhere. i have replaced 18 panels on the GT6 which includes all 4 wings, a boot floor, rear valance, entire passenger side floor section and so on and every panel fitted very well with just minimal adjustments to make it perfectly. I will say however though that all 4 wings needed filler along the top as the press created a few minor ripples, but other than that i was very pleased with the quality.

Got most of my panels from Moss as advised to by good trade engineer. Even i got them to fit quite well with my limited ability ;D if you remember my car at the Eels foot inn.

Thanks, I'll go with Moss as they seem cheaper than others i've seen.
