I have just purchased a 1969 beetle (1 owner) that has a hit on the drivers side rear quarter. It is damaged from the door lock down to the sill, and has been pushed in about 150mm. The damage also extends about 400mm towards the rear guard. The side window area has not been affected, nor has the roof.
The car was bought for the parts, but it seems a waste to strip, as everything else is in great condition and it has done 80000miles
Question: Can you buy this section as a new part?
Has anyone ever replaced this panel?
What do you think a panel shop would charge ?
Does anyone have a shell they want to cut up to supply this part ?
Its a long shot but I thought I would ask !
