AJ2014 Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hi all Is there anybody out there who makes a repair panel for the rear deck on a side screen car? More specifically the ends with double curve which meet the rear quarter panels? If these are not available, does anyone have a used rear deck which isn't damaged/rotten at the ends? Any help gratefully received Adrian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stuart Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 AFIK There is no repair sections available for that and the only deck I have needs the ends too! Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fireman049 Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hi Adrian ~ Surely you could fabricate the necessary panels yourself. This is what I did with my TR2. Tom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hi Adrian, is this the panel you are after - ~48 http://www.moss-europe.co.uk/shop-by-model/triumph/tr2-4a/body-chassis/body-panels/rear-body-floor-panels-tr2-3a.html This company may be able to help http://www.radfordpanel.com/triumph.htm They did a good repair for me a couple of years ago and a have a big inventory list.

AJ2014 Posted February 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 All Thanks for all the responses. Stuart - I thought that would be the case, it seems a common area to rot. Thanks for all your help/advice when you spoke to my body shop guys at Midland paintwerks yesterday. Very much appreciated. Tom - The car is having a full body resto at a local body shop, The panel is very good apart from the end sections, making them will be last resort. RogerH - Yes the complete panel is No48 (NCA). Thanks for the other link I will give them a try. Regards Adrian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) In the late 1980's C&B commisioned the remake of tools to press the TR2/3 rear deck by Martin Elvins (who worked in the press shop area at the back of David Manners Oldbury) Here is a photo of the 'male' tooling half just before the 'female' part was mated to it with pillars and bushes for alignment - It was cheap tooling that was never expected to last more than 50 - 100 ops. Peter W PS I have absolutely no idea if the tooling still exists. Moss could ask and search at David Manners as a kick off. I would guess the tooling to have something like 900475 or 900475RP written on it to identify. Edited February 21, 2017 by BlueTR3A-5EKT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
