I used one from NPD when I did mine. It was an offshore made item though. It was not made like the origional with the flange along the top of the bed. But it still fit pretty good. When I saw the difference I realized I could cut the old one off and leave enough of a lip below the flange to fit the panel to and that made it fit pretty easily. The only other issue was the repo fenderwell moldings didn't fit it as good as it did on the stock sheetmetel.

For what it's worth...I ordered a goodmark cowl hood, and both rear quarters for my '69 Camaro convertible. The box plainly said "Goodmark"... but it also plainly said "made in China". Pieces fit just fine though.

I don't know where Goodmark's factory is, but I hear an awful lot about the awful fit of those off shore repops and had gotten the impression Goodmark was made in USA. Based on my experience and a thread I read on this forum a while ago, this is obviously NOT the case. However it doesn't seem to be a problem either...as I said the pieces fit fine.

Talk to me before you order one Jay. I know a place in Modesto that will order them and save you the freight cost, real cool guy too. I was going to get him to order some goodmark pieces for me, maybe we can get him to cut us a better deal combined.

I have tried a goodmark hood (made in china)and was not too pleased with the quality, thinner material, less bracing.

If you are still in need I have a complete 70 bed section in decent shape with good quarters and also a NOS pair of quarters (very reasonable). e-mail me if interested.

Jay, contact him, this will be your best bet right now. If not, the full quarters from Dynacorn should be considered as well. The skin quarters that Danny posted would be OK to use, just a little harder to work with.
