I searched the site and did not find the answer i was looking for. I know in the past there were a few board members who sell AMD mentioned in various posts.
Can you recommend a few member dealers i can send my list to to get a quote for the sheetmetal and shipping?

Wow 512's trim is cheap compared to other vendors.

There's a guy with a supra in his signature that sells AMD. His member name is elitecustombody.

How much for valance corners and a set of trunk gutters for a 70 Charger, shipped to 33772 zip? (Near Tampa.)  :scratchchin:

AMD valance corners are no better than any other repro corner. Mine had to be cut in 1/2 and about 3/4 of an inch added in on both corners.

I talked to Alan @ AMD few days ago about the valance corners. He said that their corners were tooled off NOS part that they paid $500 for.

I thought all amd parts were done from NOS parts. Apparently not.

They had no idea the door skin scallops were wrong when i contacted them a couple months ago.



This is how their valance corners fit.

All the following parts were amd
full 1/4,tail panel, rear crossmember, rear valance, 1 piece trunk pan, trunk extensions, inner & outer wheel houses.

Car was braced and measured before and after cutting and nothing moved. Both valance corners fit the same. The lower body line where it meets the lowest line on the 1/$ had to be reground aswell as it did not line up.

Everyone  on the board has not had a AMD rear valance corner fit a amd 1/4 out of the box.





Finished result



Something does not jive between the rear valance,corner, and 1/4 stampings.

Not just a 70 thing either as board member Ryans 69 the corners didn't fit his amd 1/4's either.

As i say AMD is something to work with better than the other jobber metal, but still requires a lot of tweaking.

Tweaking is one thing some of the old repop ones were literally unuseable at all.  But it would nice if the fit were better yet.
