Wheelhouse repair convertible

[soundcontrol]

This is a earlier hackjob that I'm fixing, I cut it out and will fix it so it looks original. Now, since this is a convertible, there is a cap on the wheelhouse (that is not reproduced), and look at the 3rd picture, those 2 flanges welded to the bracket on the right side of the picture, what are those for? Since they did a bad job with the patch there, (and just cut those off) I can't tell how it's supposed to look like. I assume one of those are from the inner wheelhouse? But the other? Maybe someone with a convertible has a picture of this area.

I don't have any convertibles so I'm not able to get you any photos.  But I think @Convertcuda  is a convertible expert and he might be able to help?

Trying to find pictures of that area, found some but the area is usually covered with seamsealer. But this picture from MCR shows a replacement outer wheelhouse, that has a flap with a hole in it. My ADM piece does not have that flap. Could that be it? And where there special outer wheelhouses made for the convertible? It's a mystery.... hopefully someone who knows chimes in.

MCR is a good resource for reference pictures btw.

I think I figured it out, the flaps must be from the wheelhouses, here's a removed outer wheelhouse from a convertible, got a flap in that direction, and a picture where you see the inner wheelhouse is curved out towards that bracket.

I just wonder why my AMD piece do not have that flap, or is the flaps only on convertibles?

Thanks MCR for great pictures!

FWIW now you have a patten to trim your new hardtop wheelhouse into a convertible wheelhouse...
