HI guys,looking for a LH 1/4 panel trunk extension.

Been driving around for a few years.,took my car off the road to do complete bodywork etc. so I checked the motor and noticed stamped at the block is B383 Maltese cross 11 4 2.obviously a swapped motor.was told matching no’s blah blah.only thing I didn’t checkSo what the hell have I got, any...

finally found a good body shop to fit the 1/4 panel,square the back,straighten frame rail etc.

Car won’t start. Nothing at starter.

Or will I be ok to move car on a slope 30 metres to car carrier...

I am thinking of painted 2k epoxy primer on the inside of the front fenders and inner wheel wells.Can I paint straight over? Or do I have to scuff up.Is there another choice I can use.

Have purchased these corner repair brackets on the left;do I also need brackets on right thanks
