TR2/3/3A Rear Valance TR3A post 60000

My molded rear valance is in decent shape except for the left and right upper sections. I need to repair them. Does any one have a picture of what those sections should look like? I can wing it if I have to but sometimes my winging it doesn't come out so well, sigh. So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Tinkerman

Hi Tink,

Mine is out of the car so if nobody posts before I get home from work I would be glad to take some pics.

Cheers,

Tink-

Same here. In fact, I'm not positive but I think I have a post-60k valance in storage which potentially might be a better rebuilder for you - my car is pre-60k so its not needed. Are you coming down to Texas next month - if so maybe you could use it? That's only based on a very faulty memory however, so until I check storage consider it a random thought!

Dick: Mine is the two piece unit with the sheet metal top and straight plywood vertical section. However, here are a couple of photos of one like yours. What you also can do is use a contour gauge and take a contour from the upper part of each wheel arch. Then go to Staples and pick up a piece of card stock. Transfer the contour from the gauge to the card stock. Using this you can make a template for the places that need to be repaired.

Good luck.

Thanks guy's. I kinda figured that was the way it was set up. Randy I like your random thought, and yep we are coming down there next month so let me know if you have it. Mine is fixable and I've got the fiberglass to do it with, but I don't need another project if it's not needed.

Thanks, Dick
