New are not available, I have some good Mk 2 wings but pretty sure they only go up to about 2000 so your shape around the lights is different, might be able to mod it though but not sure as not familiar with the new shape, Rick

Hmm really depends on the facelift model of your truck. Earlier type with twin round headlamps are as Banshee says rockin horse poo. Later type with indicator at side of headlamp and wraps around corner of the wing are the later type which seem easier to get hold of. I’ve seen later ones on eBay but people seem to ask big money for them.

Ok cheers.
Mine has the facelift with the square headlight which cuts into the front part of the wing

Ive seen fibreglass ones on ebay but my past experience of pattern body parts has been bad. They dont usually line up very well. Poor fit in general

Old fashioned sheet metal worker needed !

Many years ago circa 1968/9 I had a 1964 Alfa Romeo 1600 Giulia Sprint - it had rotten front wings, rear panel & sills they were really bad for rusting.(I did buy it cheap - but it became a money pit)

The cost of replacement new parts was just daft beyond words, I found a local coachbuilder who took off the old wings and made new ones using some sort of hand operated roller, likewise the sills & rear panel were fabricated. When done it looked like factory replacements. Admittedly some of the original metal remained - he used lead to fill any joints where new met old.

Believe it or not the front and rear bumpers even had holes in them- I had them repaired & rechromed due to stupid parts prices.

I have lost my photos from the time but this was the shape - mine was metallic gold. They were full of modern specifications such as independent suspension all round, 5 speed gearbox, cruise control ( hand throttle type) twin webbers, disc brakes all round, reclining front seats etc.

I bought a wing for a mk II and modded it so I could fit in the mk III indicator/headlight unit.
Not the easiest way to do it but couldn't find a good one to fit my year.
