    To bad you are not over here. I know several junkyard skylarks you could cut that stuff out of. Problem with just welding sheet metal is your window mechanisms Kay not line up in the right places. There are grooves in the originals that woul be tough to duplicate. What was the past owner thinking?

    i have asked DVAP to cut out and send the spare parts to me, but something goes wrong,
    after some emails no more answer,
    another problem was they take no PayPal or mastercard,

    maybe a forum member can do this ?

    Go with Jason's originals. There is always something wrong with reproductions. Always. I am pretty jaded.

    Yes, i will wait for his results.

    Lou told me both sides are mirror images, so there is no need for the passenger side picture.

    Got the inner panels off and Im in the process of removing the glass so I can cut. Its been hot as hell past few days so its been brutal sitting in that parts car. Must be 100 degrees in there. Plus its stinky too!

    We aim to please!

    I just want you to know that the car is right next to the horse corral and Jennifer's horse decieded to crap at that very moment. So not only was the inside of the car 100 degrees, it stunk of fresh steamy horse manure. I almost passed out. The things I do for you guys....

    Hows this?
