What YEAR car???? I used full 1/4s from Ausleys and they fit as well as any GM panel I ever put on (I used to work full time at a GM dealer body shop). I KNOW mine were made in the USA but I cant remember the name of the company, Central Stamping or something like that?

The car i am builing is a 70 SS. The quaters that are on now were patched, not that well. I have decided on buying full quaters. There are alot of companys selling them. Thanks for responding. Any suggestions on trying to save some money on shipping costs?

Goodmark quarters. Ive installed one pair of goodmarks on my 70. They fit great lines all matched up. I also have a set of NOS quarters that I tested these against. Yes the goodmarks were 1 ga metal thinner then OEM :rolleyes: But I tested both goodmark and NOS and got the same fit and finish.

As for shipping go to the goodmark website and find a dealer in YOUR state. That way shipping is cheaper and many times you get a cheaper price. Also ask your local body shops too. Body shops buy there aftermarket parts from suppliers, we have 2 suppliers we buy from at my shop. Many times those suppliers might be goodmark dealers and NOT LISTED on the goodmark wesite. I bought my quarters and 2 pairs fo fenders this way. The 1/4 listed at 525 plus freight throu other dealers, I paid around 450 and no freight. If I was not happy with them I PAID NO FREIGHT BACK :eek:

Try that with Year One...Eric
