Post

Back to the top
Looking for a bit of general advice & help with what correct repair panels i need to buy.
The rear chassis legs are rotten at rear where the towing eye hook is located where the chassis legs meet rear valance.on both sides.
  Also where rear axle is bolted to floor in front of rear wheels the floor etc i rotten there as well on both sides.
If anyone can help that would be most appreciated & will try and upload some pictures.
Thanks Brian

Common rot areas, pattern replacements readily available from more than one place assuming they have stock. Im not sure all rear chassis legs go right to the back and even if they do,  they wont have those attachments on them which i believe are only used when the cars are manufactured so dont need to worry about them…

Looking at vw heritage site, you need right rear chassis  
leg repair and and left rear chassis leg repair,  the bits further forward where the rear beam mounts they call right rear chassis repair  and left rear chassis repair.  You need one of each and need to be quick as some stock level is only 1.  They do have some reduced prices though…

Help which panels i need

Hi Brian, repair panels are available but quality is not great and legs are only partial panels!

I have brand new full genuine nos legs both left and right if you need to take dimensions.

Not for sale but more than happy to help you if I can[emoji1303]
