Shock went into the boot

(1/5) > >>

danzigfan:
Hi guys...iz there a part available to fix this rust issue? Anything at all?

danzigfan:
Omega has new rear panels, new rocker panels, is completely sorted and was repainted this spring. I didin't even think it would rust trough where the shock is.
I don't want to scrap it

Doctor Gollum:
The shock turret can theoretically be replaced by drilling the spot welds and welding in a replacement turret removed from a rust free inner quarter.

I had an at length debate on here with Terry Paget on the very subject.

Obviously there will be those that insist that it can't be done.

danzigfan:
The difficult part is finding rust free inner quarter....thanks

Doctor Gollum:
The actual turret panel is about 6" square and if you remove the rear wheel arch liner or boot trim, you can clearly see it.

In theory it would have been available as a separate piece.
