Hi All, First post and not completely sure whether posting in the right section. Removed rear off side wheel to find a hole between inner wheel arch and rear floor close to rear axle mounting. The toeing eye off side rear and boxing completely corroded. Hopefully the picture below illustrates. My question is, is there any body panels I can by which reduced the fabrication of metalwork and ease the pain/ cost/ time when getting someone to cut and weld to put right and make good. Not sure what rates I should be paying. It would be good to know any recommendations for welder in Cornwall. My golf is a 1984 MK2 GTi; daily driver and been in my ownership for the last 21 years. Cheers
There is outer panels and the rear chassis rails available you may even get a repair panel for just the rear part of the chassis rails if you lucky https://www.vwheritage.com/mk2-golf/mk2-golf-panels
Hi Thanks the reply. When looking at the panels I guess when they refer to the right hand side they are talking about the offside of the car - furthest away from the kerb side.... if that makes sense?
Currently looking at https://www.vwheritage.com/191803504a-right-hand-rear-side-member-vw-spare https://www.vwheritage.com/191803504a-right-hand-rear-side-member-vw-spare
yeah left and right refers to the side of the car as if you're sitting in it, so left would be nearside and right offside
