Title: Wanted - Bis body panels
Post by: ScimitarMatt on April 01, 2008, 08:53:06 AM

Hi everyone, I'm on the hunt for a rear scuttle panel (between engine and rear bumper) for my 1991 Bis.

Mine has been feeding the tin worm for a few years and while it could be welded (as I'm doing with the floors and sills) I'm feeling lazy and just fancy bolting in a replacement.

If anyone has any panels at all (as the doors are a bit rubbish too - but saveable) please let me know by pm or direct via email to [email protected] (scimitarmatt @ mac . com)

Ta very much Pete, I've added him to my favourite sellers list on eBay. As it turns out, my mate John and I have managed to repair all the holey panels and have welded in plenty of shiny new metal.

also, Tommo in Huddersfield has provided a wealth of spares from his accident damaged aircolled FSM 126. (cheers Tommo) - it was sad to lift what was a rot free but crunched body shell onto his pickup for the scrapman. If only I'd got to it a week earlier, all the fabrication John and I did could have been saved by chopping the good sections from Tommo's wreck.

All the welding whould be finished this weekend so then it's time for rust prevention and refitting the interior ready for the final tweaks before we brave the MOT man!!!

cheers, Matt
