    I recently spoke to a fellow Buick enthusiast about a project he just finished. He informed me he was able to track down some high quality repro panels from a company in Ohio called Tabco. He is an aircraft engineer and very fussy about what he puts on his cars. He tested these panels way more than any of us probably would and was very happy with the fit and quality. I am ordering a set as I write this...best of all...they are listed at 169.75 each for rear outer skins. I think they do the older Buicks as well....They are at www.tabcobodyparts.com

    Brent - you're right....probably the best coupe/hardtop repro panels out there. :TU:

    Careful of the convertible panels though....they do not have the correct body contours.....coupe lines are different than conv lines, and it appears that Tabco just deleted the sail panel from their coupe quarters to make a convertible quarter. It will fit, but will not have the correct contours without doing a lot of work.

    So I have heard...Apparently they need a fair bit of modification for the convertibles. Fortunately I have a Coupe...Now if we could just get them to make a repro GS hood.
