Hi- this is a long shot I know- I'm after a small part about 5" square from a rear wheel arch. I just need the width by about 5-6" long, either from where the red or green square is on my doodle- not too rusty please!

Also- perhaps from the same shell- I would like 2 patches, one of the fuel filler and 2-3" all round it, and the exact opposite from the other side of the car (I know there is no filler hole there!)

If someone is able to do these just rough with a grinder and pop them in a jiffy bag cheaply it would be awesome! I'm near Colchester, Essex by the way.

Thanks, TC.

we have scrappage scheme shells that we could chop for you, what do you class as "cheaply" though

No offense meant by this- but as you are a business I assume you would want more than joe bloggs with a scrap shell in his back yard! I'm self employed and no point doing work for free, but by all means PM me a price for the parts if it is something you would do! I may also need a gear slector linkage so could help with post etc.

Tempting but I can't keep buying big bits! Just thought I actually wouldn't need the o/s patch, if the patch from the filler side went down a bit further to the top of the rear light it would do! (and the arch bit)

I just so happen to have a pair of rear arches; they have a few crusty patches. But the damper mount and surrounding areas were solid, hence why I’ve been keeping them for possible future repair sections. Unfortunately I’m fast running out of space so they are destined for the tip very soon.

ps. I also have a gear slector linkage going spare...
