Rust Panel Needed
On Friday I purchased two rust floor panels for 'Pa's Ute' - the driver's side front and rear ones from Rare Spares in Canberra. Unfortunately the rust extends further down towards the diff and I am not aware of any providers who sell this panel. I cannot progress until I've sourced a replacement. I would be extremely appreciative if someone would be prepared to sell one that they have spare. Photos are attached to assist in identifying what panel I need. Obviously postage would be at my expense too. Thanking you in advance.

As long as the section isn't like tissue paper it might be easier just to patch up holes and make your own sections.
Craig Vayne does decent patch panels, unsure if he makes that section though.

Someone must be wrecking a wagon over there and may be able to cut that piece out for ya ?
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

No wreckers in Canberra have them.
Flynn's down in Cooma have a few FB-EKs but Wayne couldn't tell me if he has a decent one so I need to pay him a visit and find out myself.
Might have to offer up an extra incentive such as one of my spare 'Holden' or 'Thomas' intake manifolds ...

Re: Rust Panel Needed
Danny,
This is the last usable piece I have in the car.
Second thoughts I might do it up one day,
It has a couple of holes but is far better than yours.
I will cut it out over the weekend and make double sure its ok, but its yours free if you want it.
I'm in Sydney so you know,
Regards Greg

Crikey! Is that what is left of your donor sedan Greg! That car has helped 'save' many others...
