Looking for a small section of the lower front cross panel (914-502-031-12) on the passenger side where the bumper mounts. I know it's a long shot, but thought maybe someone had a section left over from their own repair or a parts car.
Uncovered a very sloppy repair from a PO. They didn't even include the bottom hole to mount the bumper!  Thank you. P.S. I'm aware that complete cross panels are now available from Restoration Design. That is great, but I'd like to avoid wasting a majority of a panel and the expense associated with buying and shipping it. |

I've done this repair before. Its not too bad but the bumper mount, if you have to replace it, is a PITA to get off.

It appears you have the fender off in your photo. I'm guess that will be necessary if order to get access to weld the bumper mount to the frunk sidewall? QUOTE(Montreal914 @ Sep 8 2024, 07:07 AM) Did you need to remove the fender for this repair? This is becoming a very slipper slope! Short term, I am tempted to just drill a hole and weld on another washer for the bottom mount. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) No, I think you can replace the bracket without removing the fender. However, I'm not convinced you need to replace it. What about just welding in the section that is rusty? I'd cut a rectangular hole out of the front cross (around this rusty area). Make it big enough to get in there to the bracket and then just cut and replace the part of the bracket that is rusted? Unless you have a hole in it going into the light bucket like I did, I'd just weld in a new section. Hell, buy the RD part and just use what you need. That would be a pretty easy repair, IMO. |
