Re: rust replacement panels

I agree with checking the board vendors list. I got some parts from wes at classic heartbeat and they seem to fit pretty good so far. Eric

Re: rust replacement panels

From what I have read on this site and personal experences it is better to find original equipment for example stock fenders, rockers, hoods, bumpers, ect. when you can. Start at salvage, yards swap meets craigslist. Most new replacment panels come from the same place and made with thiner and lighter material. And as they alway say suport the board venders.
