Dear Guys, does anybody repop quarters for a 1969 Chevelle convertible yet? I've been waiting. They have the little groove or crease near the top of the panel. Thanks,
R. B.

rb,

No such luck. A while back, I sent an email to Goodmark Industries (who makes the 70 convert quarters) asking them if there were plans to repro the 69's too. They said it will not happen. The tooling doesn't exist any longer, and it would be cost prohibitive to retool. So I guess we're both on our own.

I thought I just saw them in the new OPG 2001 catalog. Maybe I was wrong, but I think I remember them.

Dear Jerry and Bill, thanks for the info. You both have excetionally nice cars. I will check with OPG on the hope that they can help. In the meantime, my car is green with a white top and interior. Wish I could send pictures. I really like that '68/'69 body style, but then I guess everybody has a personal favorite. Glad we don't all want '69's. Thanks. R.B.
