jiggawhat2k Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Got these panels (brown and black) as part of a spares package that came with my Herald 13 60. Need Triumph/classics nerd to help me identify them as I'm not sure... Brown ones probably rear arch? Black are they bubble arches?? Any ideas? Thanks all!

Steve P Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Looks like rear inners and outer arches to me. Steve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NonMember Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Yes, the red ones are rear wing arch repairs, the black are the outer part of the wheel arch. So the flange on the red ones should fit the rolled-over bit of the black ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Lindsay Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Top (red) ones are repair sections only, not full panels, and they go around the rear wheel arch. Hold one against the side of the car and you'll see the profile. As Rob says the other is the outer part of the wheelarch in behind the rear wing; if you look at that area you'll see the seam running right up and around the wheelarch. That's the outer part closest to the wing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteH Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 HI Wish Mine had come with a pair!. I fabricated out of sheet steel, Using a "home made" wooden former, a couple of lengths of Angle iron in a vice and a Small "anvil". The weld leaves much to be desired though!, strong but ugly, I think best describes the end result. Thank the lord (and Aldi) for Angle grinders and 40 grit flap discs!. Now I need some front wing corner repair patches, that is going to be a "challenge". The wheel arch section(s) will be the easier P.S.That is where they Fit!.

68vitesse Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 My repairs are always seem not as good as I hopped, but hopefully not as bad as I feared. All the best with your work. Regards Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm impressed by anyone doing their own welding, however rough it might be! Looks tidy to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
