Shri Lanka patch panels
Posted: Wed Sep 16, 2026 12:40 pm
So I have been waiting for parts to come from a source in the UK and they finally came....I think they are called "wing flanges"???
They look good sitting on the floor...but that is where the good ends...
I at first tried to line it up on the existing quarter panel...nothing was even close...so I thought I was going crazy...
well maybe if I see if they will line up on the existing rear wing...
Not even close on the wing mounting holes...
So just a warning fellow Morris Minor folks...
Do not buy Shri Lanka patch panels for the rear wings...
So today I will be cutting it into several pieces and welding it into the existing rusted quarter panel
I have cobbled up many older cars over the years and this lack of quality control pretty bad...
I remember putting cab corners in a 1953 Chevy truck and they were from China and they fit better than these do...
Stay away from the company selling these patch panel...JUNK
