Inner roof repair
Any advice on where to buy the inner roof repair panel? Heard the "tri-plus" was best??? Your thoughts? Classic and Brothers have and still are out of them for the past couple of months. Thanks!

Re: Inner roof repair
My friend Mike did his but I don't recall where he got the panel from, Here is a link to the page of his build where he replaced the inner roof skin. PM him and ask how it fit and where he got it, he is a nice helpful kind of guy

Re: Inner roof repair
We have them arriving on the 12th of June. Since this is one of the very few parts made by only one company Tri-Plus would have to be the best. We supplied the original part to be duplicated when we worked with them to develope this patch panel about 8 years ago and the fit is good. We also offer the outer cab roof.

Re: Inner roof repair
GMCPauls- not to hijack but how about having one of these made that fits. I bought an LMC piece because my local Tri-Plus supplier (Classic Auto in OKC) said they dont make that piece. looks like you yave it on your website but it looks like the LMC piece that doesn't fit. I am speaking of the rear cab lower pillar extension. there is no curve where it is supposed to mate to the cab corner and the flange that mates with the floor/inner rocker is too narrow to accept the nuts. As you can see I rebuilt mine from what was left of it with more than half the steel being replaced....
