That would probably still be cheaper than welding up my KJA!

Re: fibre glass bodys, but.in NZ :(
You must be looking at the half cab. It's spot on!
Googleing for body panels, you can get alloy, fibre glass and steel repair / replacement panels all over the world, some at reasonable prices. EXCEPT THE UK!
It's angered me today.

Did you find anyone selling KJA panels?

Re: fibre glass bodys, but.in NZ :(
There are a lot of pattern part panels available from Germany but some of the
Quality is pretty shocking. And the good stuff is fairly peicey.
For example the quarter panels currently on ebay. The swage
Line looks a bit vague as on reae quarter its quite a strong line.
And the tight radius on the rear corners look deformed. I thought of doing
Both quarters on mine but im certain it would be more work than
Just fabbin my own repair patches.

Mainly the lower rear part of the cab and any parts for the bed. Most of the rest is probably interchangeable with other models.

Yes that's what I thought, they look to be very badly made - so much for German engineering.andyrew wrote:There are a lot of pattern part panels available from Germany but some of the

Re: fibre glass bodys, but.in NZ :(
I have a quick fix idea for mine now, but need to know if harnesses will do instead of seat belts for the MOT.
Lots of pattern parts available, manufacturers do say may require adjustment to fit. Regardless of manufacturer most pattern parts tend to need fettling with to make them fit. I do love the fibreglass cab though. Pricey at £2300 plus shipping.
