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...
 Here's some pics and measurements that might help out: |

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.`
