Hello, i,m only new to alfa's and have a 74 spider which is very rusty,:mad: while googling for replacment panels i came across this sight.
Hopefully someone can help me, on ebay at the moment are 2 quarter panels (which i need badly) the left one is from an 83-90 model and the right one is from a 83-94 model.
So my question is will they fit and what if any are the differences?
many thanks
Peter

Physically they will fit but are a pretty different shape than what your car actually calls for.

You have a series 2 body while the 1/4'rs you're looking at are for a series 3 body. (actually one of the sellers is a bit confused too as the one labelled '83-94' would go into series 4 and thus couldn't fit those years as again it's a different shape than the S2 or S3)

Actually there are several places that patch panels and outright replacement panels can be had.

Somewhere up near the top of the forum is a thread with a whole heap of parts suppliers listed in it, but right off, I'd imagine Centerline, IAP, Alfaholics, and classicalfa would all have something available.

EDIT:

This thread is the one I meant.
