Who sells the most accurate patch panels for the lower edge of the wings? I've got a second set of wings that need more than a little rust repair.
Thanks, Rut
 
Hello Rut

The PO of my car used a TRF patch panel. It was from around 1999 to 2000 so they may be better now. I notice that the rounded portion between the bottom edge and the vertical section is not an exact match to the original part. Also the rear edge is not folded over. There is a flanged edge to join the panel to the wing.
Apart from that it looks Ok The photos are ones that Albert of TRF sent to me.

I made my own repair part following John's instructions/directions.

Those look like TR3 panels David ... I believe Rut is asking about repair panels for a TR4.

Rut: I do have a set of repair panels from Moss for the front wings of a TR4. I can't speak to the accuracy of them as I haven't installed them, but they are well made and "look" correct.

Thanks guys! I believe y'all are correct on the Moss-Niehouse parts. I found them on VB, but can't locate anything on TRF...only full panels.
