Boomer Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 I am amazed at the level of commitment Bond went for creating this Superleggera model. From what I understand, the design staff went for a special class of Hole design in Gruyère Switzerland. It’s great that I bought a car that combine the worst of two worlds, the rust of steel and the cracks from fiberglass… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougbgt6 Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Colin, that's Emmental, not Gruyere, entirely the wrong thing for this application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomer Posted March 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I wonder if they used the same material chopped for the fiberglass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomer Posted March 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Back to work, where can I find repair panels for fixing this mess? I tried Chic Doig but no response... yet? If you have have a used bulkhead you can part with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 The treadplates are readily available. The proper repair involves buying 2 for each side, flattening the inner lip on one to weld to the floorpan and then adding the second, which gives you the lip for the doorseal. New body mount too. Think chick does a ready-made up double skinned repair. You may end up making a few bits, chic is good with all these bits and bobs so worth a call. Often speaking is rather more productive than email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mishmosh Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Rd fitchetts do a good heavy duty tread plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
