66 Inner door patch panel- is this right?

Im wondering if my doors are actually from a 66 or if the patch panel pics are misleading. Ive added the patch panel pic that ive seen on sites like classic parts and top banana on a pic with my door. Anyone run into this? They dont match up.

Re: 66 Inner door patch panel- is this right?

race cougar just talked about this in his thread, this is the part that is available for 64-66 trucks, however the bottom corner is not correct, it is a replacement piece, not a "restoration" piece... meaning that it will work, and appear correct for the most part, except for us eagle eye purists!

before today I did not know that the patch panel was stamped different.... I wonder what the inside of the reproduction door looks like?

here is the thread, post # 330, page 14
