Does anyone on here know someone who makes, or has a full OE LH drivers side quarter panel for a 1965 Plymouth Belvedere? This is my first full restoration and I could use some help.

As far as I know they're not being reproduced, and I can't recall seeing an NOS quarter in...ever. Best you can find is sections or a donor car.

Yep. When I restored the bodywork on my '65 Satellite in 2010, the only repop sheet metal available for rear QP were patch panels for the arches. I bought mine from Kramer Automotive in PA.

Where are they rusted? The lowers are pretty easy to make. For the upper wheel arches there are lot of decent 4 doors out there that can be cut for patches.

I ended up using the replacement wheel arches and was not happy with the quality or finish for what they cost. Have talked to others who had the same opinion. Better than nothing, but still a pain.

I have never seen an NOS quarter for one of those now that I think of it, and don't know that I've ever seen anyone with ones cut off a junk yard car.

If you have the anodized aluminum trim that goes on the wheel openings (Satellite), don't even think about using the available replacement wheel openings. Not even close!

Seen one about 20 years ago at the Nats and it had a $1800 price tag on it even back then
That's the only one I have ever seen
If you need a good panel call Jim Kramer he can fix you up
