Hi,
Been away for a while dealing with cancer but now I'm back to working on my '55 100M conversion.

I need a picture of the vinyl pieces that go on the rear wheel arches. Need to know how they are sewn together. Can't seem to find any good pics anywhere.

Also need a good picture of how the licence plate mounts. There was nothing on the car when I got it, and once again, no good pictures online that I can find. I've found good pics of the plate being mounted directly to the body, along with the light, without bumpers, but I need to know how they mount with bumpers on the car.

Will greatly appreciate any help with this.

David;
Your in a growing group ( unfortunately) of cancer folks...... myself included.
Hope you are done with treatment without occurrences.
don't have a 100M... but what a great car !!
 
I found some pics on an Australian site that answered my wheel arch question.

Found pics of rear part of cars. Looks like some mount plate and light to the body EVEN with the bumpers on. Is that correct????? Others appear to mount the plate and light to the bumper it's self, some behind bumper, some on the outside of the bumper.

What is correct for a 1955 BN1?

David
 
Hope these pics help

Just a side note on your picture. I have a phase 1 BJ8 with the same configuration. I have many times bottomed the rear plate on driveways so I attached a spring-hing form an automatic door closer that allows the plate to flip backwards then back to the original position. It SAVES my rare YOM black California plate.
