In the UK most parts for Spitfires are readily available. One
of the biggest mail order suppliers are Rimmer Bros. Their
catalogue shows three veneer panels (parts RL1169, RL1170, RL1172)
at about a fiver each. These are for a right hand drive car, I
don't know if they are transposable if you have a left hand drive.
I think these are just the veneers - you would need to cut new
wood to stick them to (marine plywood would probably be a good
choice).
Rimmer will export parts.
phone +44 522 791 965
fax +44 522 794 118
I have no connection with Rimmer Bros.- just a satisfied customer. Their
catalogue is superb - glossy colour with the origional BL parts catalogue
drawings and part numbers.
