Body patch panels

Post by kitchman »

Hello all , still have my little girl, although the N.E. where she roams is a salt palace in the winter! Curious if anyone has knowledge of sheet metal patch panels for the Tercel wagon, specifically the fender and quarter panel upper eye brow areas?

I have to say, no I do not have such knowledge.

I do, however, have a right front fender from a 1985 SR5 wagon available (and a bunch of other parts posted on this forum), in eastern PA.

No other vehicle that I have ever owned had a heart and soul like my 1985 Tercel SR5 4WD Wagon. :D

If you're at all handy with a welder, sheet steel, and body fill, or have a friend who is, I'd recommend making some.
I've only seen one site that claims to have fenders for these, and they go for $400+ CAD. I think the site was called Amayama.
While my results were never perfect compared to a clean example, it does the job.

kitchman,

I have no knowledge of replacement fenders. I could be wrong, but I believe the consensus is the front fenders should all swap regardless of year AND 2WD to 4WD. Somebody may confirm, but I'm pretty confident that is the case.
