AMD....your only choice IMHO

There's only a couple different companies making all the different panels being sold.  Most of the sellers you see advertising stuff are moving products from the same couple of big suppliers.

AMD (Auto Metal Direct) is the big supplier you want.  Hands down.  They don't make everything but they make the sheetmetal parts.

Thanks for the info all of you guys!!!!! AMD looked it up and it looks legit, will start ordering parts soon..

Who are you thinking about ordering metal from? When I had my 68, AMD wanted $130.00 (on-line) to ship $7,000.00 in parts.

You can actually buy AMD panels on Ebay cheaper than buying direct and they ship free

AMD parts for sure but I avoid ordering the parts directly from them.  They charge full price plus shipping.   Most other distributors will give a nice discount but most will drop ship from AMD so there is no break on shipping. One distributor that I have used is

He's just a individual(with a day job) so he may be a little hard to reach but great to work with.

Oh, and for big parts (fenders and such), if you can find a business to ship the parts to, this will save you some bucks.   I've used a local garage.  Shipping to a residence is $175 and to a business is $125 IIRC.
