Wagon Saloon Arch Conversion
Hi all. I'm getting tempted to do the front and rear saloon arch conversion on my blob wagon. The rear arches need repairing anyway, so I'm thinking it's the perfect excuse to do the saloon arches. I'm looking at the ABW rear arch kit, but I'm wondering how much other stuff I'd need. Obviously front arches, front bumper and rear doors will need changing. I'd guess I also need to do the front and rear arch liners as the wagon ones wouldn't be wide enough? Anything else?

For the front end you'll need front wings, front bumper and arch liners and for the rear you'll need saloon rear doors but swap over to the estate glass, the original rear quarters will need chopping, modifying and welding to meet up with the abw rear quarters and if im correct the abw kit fits with the original estate bumper. Also will either need wider wheel or spacers.

I done mine with steel quarters cut from a scapper but basically done the same other than welding in the rear quarters
