hi all starting work on my inner wings the bolt holes on most of them are rusted and some of them have been glassed and dont match up right when the wing is bolted on........ i dont realy wont to go down the road of re welding a inner wing in as they all need doing and it is costly, could any body tell me the best way it should be done to get rid of all the rust and match up the rest................ many thanks
paul :lol:

Paul-
I'm confused- what are the "inner wings" of an older bug? Not a term I'm familiar with, being from the Midwest of USA.

English people call the fenders - 'wings'

Here's a photo, the front quarter is the part thats visible and the inner wing is the part covered by the fender.



Paul, there are replacement strips available, it all depends on whats gone and how bad the rest is. Couldn't find a photo of a front one, this is a rear one - but I'm sure front are available.

Thanks! I thought wings probably meant the fenders, but wasn't sure.
