I just called auto body specialties and I was told that the pans are comming out in about 3-4 months and that they are still test fitting them..The price she told me is they will be about 115$ per side (Two piece) and she is getting a boat load of calls about them. I specifically asked about my 72, it should be 71-74..or atleast 71-72 if there is not differences between that and 73-74? I didnt get into it that much with her..but us 3rd gen guys just may have some new  hope!! :yesnod: :2thumbs:
Earth. Even the word sounded strange to me now... unfamiliar. How long had I been gone? How long had I been back? Did it matter? I tried to find the rhythm of the world where I used to live. I followed the current. I was silent, attentive, I made a conscious effort to smile, nod, stand, and perform the millions of gestures that constitute life on earth. I studied these gestures until they became reflexes again. But I was haunted by the idea that I remembered her wrong -Solaris

I think they do make quarters. not sure who does though, but I believe I've seen them somewhere multiple times.

Sorry, we just did an extensive search to find lower quarters for the 73-74. No one makes one. We ended up fabricating trunk extensions and lower quarters for this one

We do a ton of business with Auto Body Specialties, and they are looking for a good quarter to use for R & D, so far he has not had much luck, whats out there is either rusty or $7500.

You might find some N.O.S on Flea-bay, or the swap meets.  :brickwall:

In there online store, there is lower quarter patch panels but not the whole thing, I doubt they have started making those either...Im not sure wich year, but it says 71-74..I doubt it holds any ground as of yet though. :'(

I have heard very good reviews on these.  I contacted all the recent buyers of this panel, and all were impressed by the quality.
