Noticed rust that will fail MOT. It's rotted out the seam under the rubber door seal going around the arch on near side rear. Will get a photo to show but if you open NSR door, just near the seat there's a black seal running around wheel arch. The metal it grips to has rotted off.
I was hoping to find a replacement arch or steel, small as possible including the rotten bit to cut out and weld in.
But I can't find any such parts for sale anywhere. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Usually such body parts are obsolete these days, though if you find one in stock it will be quite expensive, google out the p/n based on THIS

Had this issue too, you’ll just have to pattern it the best you can and make a repair panel/patch to weld in. I’d get used to this cause if there ain’t an easy panel for it then it’s a diy job.

Hi, can you put a picture up of what you need ? There's a indie place near me that is scrapping a shell (chassis rotten so they used the TD5 eng. for a defender conversion ). I was going to rob a few bits off it myself so can have a look/post pics, I know it's dark blue.

Very kind offer. Seems too much to ask really as it doesn't look easy!
Couple of pics of the offending area...
