Title: 2.3 Rear wheel arches
Post by exaktaman on Feb 13^th, 2012, 11:54am

Hello All,
Can anyone recommend - anywhere in the country - where I can get the rear arches replaced?
An idea of cost etc would be helpful. Obviously there would other bits and pieces to be done - bottom half respray etc.
Where I live there is always a sharp intake of breath and muttering about no replacement parts, to big a job, wont last.
Help!

I had mine done in Peterborough by a mate of GOZZ's who did a first class job and indeed later in the year I shall take my car there for further cosmetic work. The rear wheel arches and sills were done. The former were those for the earlier Scorp but fit with minor modification. I know it's a long way from home and you'd need to talk to him about the price. His name is Mark and he is contactable on 01733 349229. He looked after all Gozz's funeral fleet for years so that might give you an idea of the standard of his work. :)

Thanks for the advice Simmo. I have a son who lives near March, Cambs so I could stay there while the work was being done - in the early Spring I hope.
