    Repair (rust) panels

    Does anyone have either NOS, after market repair panels tucked away?? Will also happily take excellent used bits of a car.

    Need the following:

    Front suspension pan & tank support

    complete floor pans

    front firewall

    rear lid and bonnet

    Sunroof clip

    will purchase the remains of an entire car if someone has it in their yard and their lovely partner...doesn't!

    thanks Michel

        don't take this the wrong way - but that is a ton of work. is it really worth saving?

            I have decided to replace the entire floor sections and need to replace part of the fire wall not all etc. Having said that once the interior and underside is cleaned up you never know I will assess then.

            The external body is good and i will be doing the majority of the panel work. Not too concerned with a concourse level of originality during the rebuild as this is a converted cat to begin with

            Bu then again if anyone knows of an immaculate 912 let me know

                i think the fact that you will be doing the majority of the panel work makes the project worthwhile. i would love to have a go at something like that but lack time, space, skill, bravery (insert more here...) etc etc. good luck!

                  thanks for the encouragement...will keep you posted as to when I begin (february) and with progress shots...hmm ready for thredbo next year, though I would happily ride my duke.

                  I have been reading up on panel work and cam e across a number of threads where they were using epoxy and rivets to bond the repair panels rather than weld in. May the gods preserve us. I am sure that this works on Lotus Audi et al but for cars not designed for this? Lets hope they don't epoxy the suspension pans in place

                  Again if anyone knows of another 912 let me know - it cannot be RED!

                  Also looking for 912 heads and a type 4 motor - anyone?
