No this is not a piece cut from a rust free California 914 but rather a construction of all of the great aftermarket rust repair panels available for our 914s.

Originally, the outer skin is flat, and inner piece has ribs. It sounded like you were a little unclear on that point.

Originally, the outer skin is flat, and inner piece has ribs. It sounded like you were a little unclear on that point. I get that but I guess I am asking do you need to replace the whole piece or can you just replace a portion and attempt to weld the new thicker, ribbed material to both the outer skin and the remaining inner stiffener? It just seems that things would be getting pretty cut up within the long and I was concerned with strength. The reason I ask is I am wrestling with the decision of whether to buy the replacement piece or try to fabricate what I have to cut out due to rust |
