body and interior Front valance

[tone1633]

Does anyone know if there is a front lower valance repair panel available....I know Restoration Design offer a rear valance repair panel. Mine is pretty rusty on the bottom and I really do not want to replace the whole front clip as the top half is good.

You might check the classified section for someone parting out a car.  Could also check with Jaymic.com in UK or Wallothnesch.com in Germany.

That's one of those places where you want a friend with an English wheel-  I have made

small convex sections on a sandbag, but they're never perfect.  An English wheel can do

that in about 5 minutes.... maybe one of these decades, I'll get one and try it!
 

Honestly, if you've just lost the seam at the bottom, you can usually get away with flat stock.

A little body work on the metal afterwards, and it's pretty inconspicuous.

Bought mine from Jaymic.

I had some rust at bottom edge when I restored mine...

And was able to shape, using body hammer, dolly and vise, a respectable looking piece..




Good luck...a little Pennsyltuckey engineering saves yah some bucks and makes for a solid repair.
