How would you guys compare the quality of body parts such as fenders, hoods with all the vendors out there ? Mainly Good Mark and Classic Industries. I know the chrome items from LMC are crap. Thanks

It is said that most if not all sheet metal parts come from the same group of factories. True? I don’t know. Seems most of our members complain about having to “custom” fit the pieces when they install them no matter what vendor they buy from.🛠

You might have better luck with your local wrecking yard. They may be able to find quality parts that actually fit without a lot of tweaking.
