Default 1966 MK 10 Wheel Arch Repair Panels

My 1966 4.2 ltr MK 10 is starting to look a little tatty around the wheel arches, does anyone know if it is possible to get repair panels? I can only find complete wings on Fleabay and it'd be expensive to cut up a wing just for the arches.

I'm also looking for a reputable garage to carry out the work, I can do mechanical work but my body work isn't up to the quality I'd like. I live in France to if anyone has experience of a French bodyshop that'd be great but I would be willing to return to the UK to get the work done.

Many thanks.

There's very little demand for Mark 10 body panels as there are so few cars left now. You could try Martin Robey, based at Nuneaton

Thanks, I know there aren't many left. According to the 'How Many Left' Government site there are 51 out of (I think 3000) made.

There are a few places in the States you can try that have Mark X's on their lots where they can pull parts. One is Jaguar Heaven in Stockton, California and the other is Jagnut Jaguar Spares in Virginia. Jaguar Heaven has a website, but Jagnut can only be contacted by phone - 01-540-743-4037.

Many thanks, I have found the rears but I think shipping the the U.S. will be expensive - I'm in France.
