rocker repair

Share this page

MOSS, VB, AH Spares from over the pond. All depends on how much you need to repair. Sometimes since the price is fairly reasonable for the entire rocker to simply but the entire panel and cut out that you need. Last time I looked last year complete lower outer was $65.00. I have a spot to fix on DS Rocker right behind the wheel on a replacement panel that managed to rust through in spite of garage housed, < 6-8,000 miles. You will learn to replace and repair as needed. These cars will rust if you drive them. And even if you don't drive them they will rust. Hence the reason for my Rustoleum Paint job, in spite of all we do to maintain they will continue to rust away. Your job is to preserve it for someone else to enjoy after you are done having fun.
 
all i needed was a really small repair and the small panels don't seem to be available so i spent a couple of hours fabbing one..it went well but the gentle curve toward the front was a pia to get right..and the other side needs the same
 
i've been using a 3m rust prevent/coating..it has a small straw so you can get it in some really tight places..
