	Bit of a strange request this one, Corners of my front end have rotted out (1977 Dolomite 1850), rest of it looks ok, anyone know of a car about to go to scrap or one they're breaking that they wouldnt mind chopping some bits off that i can weld in? Photo to show you which part has rusted out: Not the clearest photo, i'll try and get some better ones tomorrow. Cheers for looking, Jono

	The dolomite club do genuinely excellent fibreglass wings and front valance. Not original but a great option that will last....

They will cost you less than good steel panels, if you can find any steel ones that is. The steel panels are rare and hence get good money. They are common rot areas so your need is very common. That's why your car was £100 I suspect - all the value of a Dolly is based around body condition....

	I have found a set of steel ones, £45 a wing and £50 a panel though. Or an entire front end for £100, getting back is a curse word though. As for body condition, its not bad, front is the worst of it thus far.
