MGB: Red Dogleg Panel Fix

Alas I removed all of the rusted dogleg prior to the warning that the red repair panel would not match the curve of the B(?) post. Chris Roop advises that Moss does not have Heritage repair panel. So, does anyone have a sorce for a panel that fits? If not, how do I fabricate the proper fit?

try and salvage some of the curve of the door and weld to that, if possible. If not you can slice the red one and and make your own curve and weld it. Below is how I did it, you can probably do something similar with the red one, if you can salvage the radius.

Hello Bill
You could thy this if you don't mind a little cut and fit work on the panel.

Thanks Paul. I have the door raduis in tact on the B post so I will add a "shim" to the red dogleg. Will take picture of this tonite to make more sense.
