I would recommend British Motor Heritage or Mini Machine in Darlington. They will give excellent quality and fit.
Cheers. Tim.

m machine used to sell altered later ones when that was all that was avalible.
now you can buy heritage early inners from m-machine as they are avalible again.
they fit fine, same as any other heritage panel - may need skills to make them look 100% or small amounts of altering depending on what year car it is.
either way, its cheaper than trying to make a 100% authentic, fits perfect panel yourself from a sheel of steel! - we all should praise the efforts of heritage and m-machine for the panels they do sell to enable us to fix our cars reasonably cheaply.

Re: repop inner wings
it's for a 66 's' that I'm going to chop into a sprint... gathering parts, someone has cut it at the shock towers in the past. shell is rust free and has been sitting since the 70's here in California.

if your going to chop it into a sprint then 100% authentic innerwings will be the least of your worries!

Re: repop inner wings
And don't forget that there was at least one Sprint done with a flip front when it was converted
