GM vs. Repro

Hi All,

New member. I just bought an 81 Chevy , Std cab, Dually. It needs the typical bodywork seen here in new England. That is fenders, rockers, front inner fenderwells. And one dually fender.

Anyhow what is the opinion of the group as to the quality and fit n finish of the repro sheet metal?.....John

there's a company in Ohio, Keystone, that sells aftermarket sheet metal... they have 'basic parts' and 'certified parts.' those that are certified are monitored under quality control... and when you get 'em, if they dont fit right, or for whatever reason you dont like 'em, box 'em up and send 'em back and get a replacement...

Keystone

Yes I have one here CT. Previous owner of the truck told me about them but I have not made it down there yet.

Any idea on the sheetmetal from JC Whitney?.......John
