Aug 6th, 06, 9:06 PM Jake, I got 2 rear wheel arches and lower rear 1/4 panel pieces made by "Parts Duplicators, Wheat Ridge Colorado. I'm pretty sure I bought them through one of the catalogs, but don't remember which one. "Full factory style"?

They also have the door skins. If you're a member of the El Camino Central site, they'll give you a 5% discount. I ususally buy from them, NPD, True Connections, or Goodmark. 65 El Co Aug 9th, 06, 8:17 PM There are none available. I had heard that the Chinese had pretty much worn out the stamping molds. The last few made over 3 years ago were so bad no one could use them. I have seen 4 NOS quarters being sold on e-bay, in the last 2 years, but they all looked pretty beat up. Best bet is to find a really good body shop. I spent over 3 months getting mine straight enough to only have a skim coat of filler on it. What a PITA. Good luck. 68protouring454 Aug 10th, 06, 9:59 PM i own and run my own body shop, so thats not a problem thanks jake | ||
