alan.c Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) ]Hi all just found this t reg vauxhall cavalier sport back on a house clearance so as it was for sale I had to have it 31 thousand on the clock with 1 owner from new. I had to put a number plate light in it to pass its mot not bad as it has not seen the light of day for the last 16 yrs. I am well pleased with it but on inspection it needs a little paint work around the rear arches and my local paint shop says it would be best to replace them. Not to sure as it is a very small amount of rust. not sure how to post pictures yet but will post as soon as I can work it out http://s749.photobuc...sports%20hatch/ Edited March 13, 2011 by alan.c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plumster Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Wheel arch trims are pretty rare, Opel Classic Parts did have a few of them a couple of years back, but not full sets. It's best to just keep an eye open for a demic with decent ones. Don't know about exhaust or arch repair panels, someone will know though, this place is full of anoraks....
