 |

As bay windows (Westy's especially) climb in price I'm getting more and more requests from customers for full restos and rust repair. The only company that I've seen even remotely decent repair/replacement panels is Autocraft, but unlike the split bus panels, not all late bay panels are being reproduced. My huge question is....what are people doing for the inner rear wheel arches? The outer panels are available, albeit not correct gauge and pretty piss poor fit, but the inner panel/structures are not available anywhere. And so many buses are rusty here because of the inherent design flaw of how the two panels come together. I know there's been 100's of bays restored professionally around the world and just trying to get some feedback on how other people/shops have gone about repairing the rust in the rear wheel arch area
