Question
both fenders have rusted away to the top chrome molding of the box . The rest of the box is in fairly good shape, is there replacement parts for these sections , plastic ,fiberglass,or otherwise or do you have to weld in metal.thanks.


Answer
Hi Greg! According to my catalogue,there are complete box side skins and partial patch panels available. Check your local autobody parts retailer. You can weld these in of course, or they can also be glued in.3M and Norton have excellent products for this application. Just make sure you have at least a 1 inch overlap when gluing and you must weld the rear of the panel. You Are welcome!
