Commodore a blech teile

[coralreef]

Hi all

Just wondering about the quality and how well different blech teile fits ?

I have a lot of small areas which will be hand made, but in the lower back of the car i need several parts...

- Anschlussblech links/rechts.
- Endspitze endblech hinten links/rechts. Is there different types here(breite) ?
- Heckblech unten.
- Radlauf hinten links/rechts. Mine are basicly ok, but they are welded on top of the car side, and then 1cm of plastic padding on top . I need to fit the Radbogenleisten, so what to buy that has the correct/original shape ?

Where to buy from ? Altopelhilfe has em all, is that a good choice ?

And what is the german name of this part:

Hi,

"And what is the german name of this part: "

its Rahmenträger / Rahmenbogen hinten links.

-> its hard to find and expensive - no illusions about the quality and the perfekt fit !

For all offered aftermarket body repair rarts: These Parts are made in the 80´s for a quick cheap and dirty fix.

They are a little bit bigger than the orginal and designed to weld them over the rusty old ones....

All body parts need intensive work to have a good fit.

Regards

Georg

Thanks for the translation ! Will hammer one out by myself then

Are some brands/shops preferable regarding how well it fits ?

it's like Driver says, the non original parts fit badly . Cut original tin from donator cars as much as possible if you can find them, you will save time and aggravation.

For the few parts i need a donor car is to much - and the parts would be just as bad as mine i guess...

Will talk to my friend who will do all this work about it.

Just had a small hope that decent parts where out there .

You don't have to buy a complete car, can't you go to a junk yard ? Or maybe there is someone who has a donator(s) you can cut from ?

all those old cars in junkyards usually all have the same probs: rust at the usual places

it's not called "junk yard" for nothing

Danke - been following that thread a while, nice work he is doing i must say.

I wont do the welding and so on by myself - i can weld, but not on a car ! I have a close friend with 35 years of doing that, and all i have to do is bring him the car body(cleaned - working on that) and the parts that i can get(the rest i he will build)... An old school guy, who uses tin(Zinn) instead of plastic padding

My point as well - the rusty parts that i need to replace is dead on all the junked cars out there.

Ended up buying new parts from "Klokkerholm":

They look great, and seems to fit quite good compared to the original.
