I was looking at Paddocks 1/4s that are 84"x30" for 139.05 each. These are for Elcaminos and will fit my wagon. Has anyone used these yet and know the quality or who makes them? The P/N for each are 1667145LH 1667244RH and that is for 64-65. Thanks for any info you can give.

I sent my set back and ate the shipping I was very dissatisfied! they were designed to fit over the existing quarter, and the body lines were incorrect. the only way I would use the panels in in the event your entire quarter is damaged and you are not after show quality!! Stan

Dave, I had the same problem. All of the repo quarters are coming from one or maybe two manufactures and they stink, like Stan, I sent mine back. Be patient and nice originals will turn up. What area(s) of yours are bad? I'll keep my ears open. Max

Don't know who made mine but I was not impressed. Was told they don't make them for 67 so you have to get the 66 one and cut out for the tailight. I needed a repair panel for behind the wheel opening and had some rust around the gas tank door. Bought the whole quarter and cut out what I needed. Would be bummed if I had to replace the whole panel with what I got. Body lines wrong,pinch welds in wrong place,etc. Hope they are better for your year.

When I called Paddock salesguy said they are made by Goodmark. I can't find anyone with this style for that little.

hey Dave your working on a 2dr wagon I guess? I've got one someone started hacking the rear wheelwells to install some front wheelwells for better tire clearance. Don't laugh I saw one at a local car show and it looked pretty good takes the opening up to the body line almost. Fixing the inner fender is going to be tough too though. I wrote in my notebook that Biscay's are made in U.S.A.whatever thats worth.
