Fibre glass inner wings(Again)

[Gordies]

Hello. I know this is going back a number of years. Did anyone get round to manufacturing replacement inner wings wether it be in steel or fibreglass . If so could some one point me in the right direction. Would prefer not to just replace inner wing rail.
Thank you

How bad are your inner wings at the top? Photo?

Hi Gordies
I don't know if you've seen it, but there's a garage breaking an R4 in Shotts. It's eBay #152198347890; it's hard to tell from the photo what the inner wings are like, but it might be worth investigating.

Thank you for the reply. I've seen alot worse. It was to make life easier when putting car back together. Better to bolt on better ones rather than start welding, again. Also thank you for letting me know about the beaker I'll look into this

I remember that forum member Snoopy1974 have done that. Fiberglass inner wings.
Here is link to his topic and specific post.

I have a pair of relatively rust free inner wings sat on the roof of my workshop.

£100 each.

Hello pepper. I would be interested in n/s passenger inner wing, do you have any pics?

 

[Gordies]

On 2nd thoughts I'd take both. Do you think they would need any welding? Or just treatment & paint? Regards

I'll get them down out of my rafters and take some photos. Pretty sure they're damm solid. But don't hold me to that. I bought them for a project from a chap in France, so they're pretty rust free.

 

[Gordies]

Sounds good, look forwards to the pics & your evaluation.
Cheers

Someone on here may value your old inner wings if they can weld . So it maybe worthwhile offering them for sale if you go for Peppers ones

 

[Gordies]

If everything goes well I will certainly do that

Overhere you can get 4x wings (aluminium or steel I think..havent unpacked them) for 64 £ per end. You have to drill the mounting holes yourself though.

There you go, they have surface rust, with a small amount of rusting along the outer wing mounts, but they are whole and in good overall condition.

 

[Gordies]

Look good. What do you want to do about postage & payment?

 

[Niels Svane]

Ah its that sort of inner wings I thought about arch liners for keeping out dirt/water/salt from the arches. Sorry

I'd be interested in a set of inner arch liners though... :-D

Are you up for p&p?

Pepper:
Still aluminium or steel, still around 64 £ per end (2 pieces) + delivery at stony3@mail.dk
And you have to drill any holes yourself as the company who makes them has a new owner which apparently cant use a drill
I'll post some pictures of them when the weather and temperature improves
