    PARTS IS PARTS

    I dont know how to get these done but most parts have to be drawn out with the intentions of knowing what direction you are going to repro them.

    Let me try again if you have a panel use my patch panel for the core support as an example i had to invest computer time to have the panel put on computer drawings so the could be punched out and then bent to spec's But I knew that they could be done on a small scale.

    As for the 1/4 panel you would need a company to stamp it however you will need to contact a company to make the die then send them overseas so that costs will be less.

    Then ship them back to the usa to be sold ..... Thats kinda the short version of it ...:D

    george, a few years ago, one of the japanese companies were doing short run stamping using cement dies. parts were pretty good, die was cheap but only good for about 200 parts. the other way you would need to have a quarter that is correct and then a demo car to try it on and pay for expensive steel or carbide die...ouch. if gm was such a fool and didn't throw stuff out, we would have the tooling. the bean counters win again. but in the real world of gm, there is gm truck, cadillac, corvette, chevy and the other lines they would like to forget.

    I know a company that has the stamp die for 67 lowerquarters

    Hi Guys, I'm not sure if you're aware but a Canadian company has and produces lower quarters for the 67 Skylark, I have a set on my car currently. Staged67' I'll find out if they will be willing to stamp a couple full quarters and what the cost would be.
