Default Subaru Impreza 22B fabrication metal rear quarter panel.

Hello.
I work in classic car restoration shop and race car preparation.
My specialty is sheet metal body parts fabrication and welding.
This is some of my works.





Recently I have access to the original Subaru Impreza 22B.





So I got an idea.
If there are interested I can produce metal rear quarter panel for 22B.
For measurements and patterns I can use original car.
So if you are interested or have a comment or question please post it or send me a mesage.

Thanks.

Sounds like a good thing, better than fibreglass. How much would you be selling these for? Lee.

100% interested, even better if you could cut it higher on the arches like the WRC kit. Obviously price would be a great factor. I've been looking at getting a WRC kit for some time now.

WRC arches....

Tanks for asking.
Rear quarter panel will be the same size as fiberglass kit.
From the edge of the door, beneath the glass edge to the trunk lid.

Tanks.
Almost 75% of the car is hand made.
New roof, doors, fenders, floors, sills, boot lid...
Over 800 hours on the body work.

Recently I received an order to make set of rear quarter panels for 22B.
If you are interested I will show you the entire process of making panels for 22B.

First I made a fiberglass mold on the original car to take all the necessary dimensions and shape.





After careful measurement and checking shapes I cut out the metal and marked all the necessary information for shaping and forming parts.

X2 can you pm me a price on front and rear panels please?

Do you know was the suspension changed on the car your doing? I'd be hoping to fill the arch with different offset wheels and keeping standard suspension shafts etc

After many hours of hammering and wheeling on the english wheel and frequently checking the shapes on the mold and templates most of the main parts is shaped.


I still need to make the lower part of the quarter panel and the rear of the sill.
