Well there not 'spare' then are they Benny there on vans too good to wreck. I'm going to look at a parts van this arvo, so cut out parts will be available if anyone's interested, just depends on how rusty she really is

Jock your in luck mate, the front of this van I'm buying seems to be in good nick, sus out the freight, and I'll cut the section out for ya.

For anyone else there seemed like good sections of gutter that would be good for rust repairs

what are the rear wheel arches like i would be interested in a cut from the inside lip about 5" into the quater all the way around does not matter if the bottom corners are a bit ruff
