Default Trying to get Rs Turbo welding panels

I am new at this and I need some help tracking down panels. I am looking to buy rear chassis legs,floor pan, sills, inner sills, pretty much anything I can get my hands on to get the car right.

Try these mate:-

http://www.worldofpartsltd.co.uk/catalog/index.php

http://www.newfordpartsonline.co.uk/...on=Prod_detail

http://www.autopanels-castleford.co....cort%20mk4.htm


Just remember, sills, inner and outter are actually supposed to be used as over panels, not replacement, a lot of people use them to replace anyway, but steel on the inner sill is only 1mm, originals are 1.5 ish mm.

As for the chassis rails, they'll cost you a fair chunk of money.


Good luck with it though


P.S. Where you from mate, Noticed your in South Wales, same as me

I've just googled Avenue panels and its literally about 300 meters from my house and round the corner from our work office! wish i'd have bloody known that when I bought my panels! Not sure if its the same place as has been mentioned though? Want me to check it out for you?

Yup try these - they stock everything they list basically! even the chassis rails, down loads the catologue for escort mk and go to body/diverse they should be under rear chassis member l/h or r/h
