Question I should know the answer to...
 
What is this thing? I need a couple of seals for it. In front of the RHS rear wheel if you need a point of reference.

Don't worry about the paint, it's in the bodyshop getting resprayed ;)

Torsion bar cover. Also looks like you're missing the rocker panels. Depending on the type car you're building, some choose to leave both off.

Looks like you have a hole in your car.


(It's the torsion bar hole. Needs a cap.)

Okay thanks guys. What do you do with a torsion bar?

I have the covers, just my guy wanted to treat the corrosion in there. One of the seals is gone too.

Why would you leave them off? I just want it to look stock (with good paint) for now.

Looks like the torsion bar access hole but the cover is missing and the back plate is still there. I think it would have to be rusted in place to be stuck there, it should still be attached to the cover. You can buy new/used ones w/ all the parts if it needs to be replaced.

That's the force that holds the car up in instead of a spring. If you wanted to replace it, you would have to cut a hole there. Porsche did it for you.
