Looking for set of outer wells. $169 each for new is a bit steep for me. Willing to pay reasonable price for a decent pair.

What is it exactly that you are looking for David? A photo would help a great deal.

Rear outer wheel wells for a roadster. Victoria British has them as part numbers 9-9798 and 9-9799. Basically I want to "tub" the rear end of my roadster but not to the inside...to the outside. It would be an easy and quick way to match the wells to the Sebring rear fenders.

OK, I'll take a closer look and see what shape the lips are in.

OK take a look at these photos, I think they show pretty clearly the damage areas. Apparently some rust repair on the lip of the one that is cut out. Carl and I beat on the other one to see what could be done with a 2 lb hand sledge to fit fatter tires and we actually split the metal in one spot. If you think you want them, make an offer.
