I rang Karcraft today but there was no answer :(

I assume they're closed till next week probably. Does anyone know otherwise??

Thanks Kev. I'll visit them then.

Additionally through old posts Ive seen discussion re outer sill panels, with Karcraft selling the UK mini version. Many differences between these and the OZ panels?

Enough that its probably easier to get a local sheet-metal shop to bend you up a couple !!

Its what I'll be doing anyway......

I used a pair of the wider UK so called `oversills' from Kc on the Clubby, they fitted OK. These have 6 bumps in them.
I didn't want the Rover 6 vent ones- Oz cars only had 1 (pitifully small) vent anyway. :lol:

Yes I cut the old ones out first, if anybody is wondering... :wink:

My mate up the street got some sheet metal folded up for sills, when he restored his 1971 S. Pretty easy to do- 1 fold, and a slight bend lengthways.
