Brett,
You have been unlucky with the rear is wheel arch rust. I seem to recall that some one had an idea as to how to achieve a full liner for this. In my car the petrol pipe going forward was a bit rusty so I thought I'd experiment with grit blasting in situe with a spot blaster. First squirt and petrol leaked out, and when the pipe was removed it was more rust than pipe. How it had held three bar I have no idea.

Hi :)

Spoke to Paul Anderson about it..he said from 91 onwards Porsche put a full rear wheel arch liner on...to stop that corrosion input...next time I am up there we will fabricate something similar... :)

All the best Brett :)

Hi :)

Pic limit is too small here...and got fed up with using a Resizer program in this day and age...

Personally and IMHO ..i suspect eventually that limit will finish this forum...

All the best Brett :)
