well thankfully i haven't ordered anything yet. thanks for the input and keep it coming . i have been to the chain auto stores and they aren't any help. either they dont go back that far or if they do its a wait on parts that is just ridiculous . theres alot of body work on my truck that has to be done as well . anybody know of some good sources for body panels and patch panels? its my first time diving into the world of auto restoration and i dont have a clue ? i dont want to get ripped off because im ignorant . i have heard of people buying after market panel that dont fit worth a dang ? any reliable sources?
