Anyone familiar with these panels?
http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/pts/870719433.html
The guy says they're made by company called "made-rite". I notice LMC doesn't sell the rear quarter for blazers....is this worth picking up?

If it's that close to you, yup. For that price, taken off-they are worth a looksee.

Re: Anyone familiar with these panels?
I've never seen repop Blazer full rear quarter panels. It's most likely short box skin. The other piece should be universal.

Re: Anyone familiar with these panels?
Unless you've found the only set, blazer bedsides have yet to be reproduced to anyone's knowledge but that's not saying these aren't those...

Re: Anyone familiar with these panels?
On a side note I was talking with a place here in KY that told me the next big blazer piece that they were going to have made are the bedsides.... Who knows when it'll get done though.....

Re: Anyone familiar with these panels?
Keep us up to date, since I don't have the $2500 required to buy NOS bedsides and I don't want/like the cut out and weld in repair idea if I can find a new or rust free bedside as an alternative??

Re: Anyone familiar with these panels?
About 8 years ago I purchased the 4 halves and welded each side together. I wasnt too good at it, but it turned out "ok" for a daily driver. After cutting my qtr panels off I welded these in and they are still on today, after an 8yr overhaul & rust treatment. It seems to me that someone definately could make them.

Re: Anyone familiar with these panels?
I have one side in my shed. A fella on ebay had a set. He told where abouts in the USA they were made. I bid on one side just because no one did. Thought about bidding on the other side. I only paid a little over a $100 Actually pretty good looking pieces.`
