Re: need info on patch panels
Sorry I can't help but can I ask a question? I will need to do the same repair. Where did you get the black metal part in the last pic - is that new? Looks like the piece made by one of the board members from Olympia, Wa.

Re: need info on patch panels
its not black its just plain steel but yeah thats the new rocker box support that Wes at {classicheartbeat} is making.I picked them up a couple of weeks ago when i was up in washington for a visit. I didn't think i needed that much rust repair when i started.

Re: need info on patch panels
I was in that area, actually still am, not long ago. All I could find was the 'B' post repair, plan on fabbing up the rest soon. If you find anything, post it up.... J.

Re: need info on patch panels
That is one of the parts that is not offered by vendors. I patched mine up as well as I could, but mine wasn't quite as bad as yours.
Good luck, Rg
