I am restoring a HK Monaro which has had the rear wheel arches/part quarter panels pushed out and also the inner/outer wheel wheels have been damaged from the porta power when this work was done. Have a HG wagon wreck with good original quarter panels in the wheel arch areas & inner/otuer wheel wells. Would like to know how much of the HG panels could be used as replacement parts, especially the wheel arch sections

It could all be restored to original, however if a competent person can be found to to the task, and do it properly, you may find it could cost many thousands, as the hours of labour required to do the job. All repaired, replaced, metal finished could cost about $5-8K. Unfortunately there are people out there that may say they can do the job and end up ruining your original car and the replacement parts. |

I'll vouch for that. If you are in the SE Qld area I can recommend a repairer, both good and bad.
