Anyone got a picture of the shut panel that goes between Inner and Outer Sill behind the front wheel. I think mine is missing from when the DPO installed new rockers but with all the crud in there from undercoating and road dirt I need to see what it is supposed to look like. A new project on Bugsy coming up this weekend for Rocker Repair to LF corner. Thanks.
 
Is this what you're looking for?

Thanks guys that how I figured it was attached but there is too much undercoating and crap in there. I can't tell if it was installed or not. Scraping and scaping under there and I'll get it fixed. In the meantime, it's Vroom, Vroom time as my bonnet latches just got installed and Bugsy is going for his first Spring ride to get some gas. PS A Post is done and looks good. Paintining is finished not to concentrate on other areas but first things first Vroom, Vroom.
 
Can one of you get a closeup of this wheel well. When I zoom in I can't get enough resolution to see it clearly. Thanks.
 
Wow, what great timing! I need to replace my Pass. side rocker so these pictures will be a big help. Now I have a reference of what it is <span style="font-style: italic">supposed</span> to look like. :wink:

Ok I now see my issue. It appears that DPO simply put on a new Outer Rocker but did not bother to fix the issue with Inner Rocker. This one may take some creative welding work to repair the Inner Rocker as well. Any advice folks.

If you are good at patching I have a outer sill that I got off E-bay that was not good enough to use as a complete part purchased one from Moss. (really good part). If you want to patch it into your existing sill-it could be used for that, I will sell it to you resonably.

If you take the outersill patch and the end cap #17 in Moss catalog you can replace that corner. The inner sill looks ok to me. Just clean and protect the mess out of it to stop rust that is in the inside
