F wheel well panels

F wheel well panels
Today on my 86 I removed the front wheel to check brakes and suspension. As we do this time of year. I noticed a bit of loose undercoating and picked it off. Well 40 minutes later 90% of the undercoating is on the garage floor. I could believe how loose it was. A couple hours later the inner wheel well in clean of undercoating. I got lucky as there was not a bit of rust. Paint looks brand new as it hasn't been seen in 29 years.
The panel on the rear on the right side(behind wheel) is cracked and pitted. The front panel is better but rough. I was going to clean the with muriatic acid but I was afraid I'd get back swiss cheese. Anyone know where I can get these? What is behine rear panel behind right front wheel.
Sorry for running on

If you fit a new panel, be careful to use a short blunt ended screws along to fix it to the metal panels, or you can short out the loom to the ECU. As I found out the hard way.
