Since I can't find a really cherry set of rear interior panels for my Barracuda, I recently ordered a set of the repro panels from Classic Industries. I received them yesterday and to say I was disappointed with them would be an understatement. THEY LOOK HORRIBLE!!! They look cheap, and the craftsmanship was lousy. The cut outs for the ash trays were obviously done by hand and not even close to square. Now I'm at a loss as to what to do. Put in the cracked beat originals I have or these crappy repops. I'll post pics later. If you need these panels, I don't recommend these repops.

I once had a set of the Layson panels, too and I will say these are better than the Layson's. These have the window roller cutout and come with the armrests which the Layson's don't. You do need to get the stainless trim separately.
I'll post pics tonight.

I am leaning towards sending them back and keep searching for a nice set of originals. Clean up and use the ones I have in the meantime.

Thanks. They don't look as good as what I already have. I can live with the small crack I have in mine since it is hidden by the top boot anyway!

How about a recommendation for paint for re-spraying the originals?
