Buy one thats done, or do the work yourself. Otherwise youll have too much into it.   I had a local shop guess about $30K to install the sheetmetal on my 67.

I got one at NAPA last week, took my old heater core to compare to theirs, is was identical dimensions, it fit perfect, used my original clips it and they  fit perfect, all Alum., I cannot find anyone that makes anything except Alum.

What did it run ya?

So just fiddling with getting the quarter fitting right, seems like it should be tighter fitting here? Rear side window opening





Also getting the drip rail to fit, its definately not as good as factory, the notches are not in the same place, if that matters

I addressed that narrow ledge in this thread: http://www.camaros.net/forums/showthread.php?t=212160&highlight=67+amd+quarter+panel&page=2 That is not all you will find that needs modifications.

Thanks, printing your whole AMD fixing thread off.  Mine seems to be evenly off front to back for the most part.

   I've been hearing that AMD panels are the best on the market, is that not true?

I assumed so when I did my research, thats why I bought all AMD parts for my car. That said, if they are the best, Id hate to see the worst! haha.

Ok, I figured, thank you! I have noticed a few things that I find odd/funny on fit, missed welds, etc. All part of the 'fun'
