Does anyone know if any front wing wheelarch lower rear repair panels are around anywhere? I see Lloyd has listed full wheelarches in those he has commissioned, but the rest of my arches are OK.
Lloyd did it that way because it is just not practicable to have lots of small wheel arch sections made - just the full ones and you cut off what you needed. Lloyd gets stuff made to order in batches.

OK thanks - this bit was something that Earlpart used to keep, and the rest of it is OK, so I'll see what I can fabricate first. I've fitted full arches to it previously, and repaired the inners, but didn't finish the car, and this area has suffered in storage outside under a sheet for 15 years. I don't think I made a very good job of the structure at the front of the sill though, or water drainage and internal rustproofing.

hi all,

sorry ive been a bit quiet of late, but im still hard at it, i havent taken my foot off the throttle, still at it every evening and weekend :)

i will be doing the smaller varients of the panels in due course, as i have been asked many times for them, i wasnt going to, but if thats what owners want, along with the other panels, then thats what i will do, but it all takes time, and manufacturers really are such hard work most of the time to deal with.

batch 2 was due to be completed in nov/dec, but still waiting, hopefully in the next two weeks !!

i do order extra panels with each batch, but trying to order the number and variety of panels is difficult to judge, and they always sell before i even recieve them anyway !!

as soon as i hear batch 2 is due, i will let you all know

hi all,

as you all know, i have had all these panels made because we needed them to save our cars from extinction, and because of my huge passion for these great cars i was not prepared to let them become extinct.

Now, its been a huge learning curve and it is also a work in progress, as i am always trying to offer you all, every panel that we need, but also to better what i'm doing all the time.

Some panels as you are aware are fabricated and some are pressed, in an ideal world all panels would be pressed, but the tooling costs a fortune along with minimum order numbers !!

BUT, i am NOW able to offer PRESSED mk2 front wings, that will be to a size of 7" above the top of the wheel arch and be in straight line from front to rear of the panel, or put another way, at 90 degrees to the door edge of the wing, SO VIRTUALLY TO THE TOP OF THE WING FOLD. the cost each will be £370.00. I can also offer you FULL PRESSED mk2 front wing skins, but it will make your eyes bleed at the cost of them !!!!

ALSO, i am having front floor pans pressed as well, these will cost £85 each.

lloyd.reed02@gmail.com

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS !!!

hi all,

mk1 and mk2 rear half wing pressed panels also available soon, so between the fabricated panels and the pressed ones, there should be a panel to suit every ones taste and wallet :)

all pressed panels will be to OE spec

long live the t2000 !!
