Not sure where I needed to post this. If this isn’t the right spot please just let me know. I found a 68 coronet wagon that I am considering purchasing but have no experience with the old wagons at all. The car needs both quarters replaced, not just patch panels. And probably a lot of the floors replaced. The only panels that AMD carries for these cars are the front section of the floor and a few other small pieces. Does anyone reproduce panels for the wagons or Do you have to find a donor car or someone selling the parts off of cars they parted out? Thank you for any help you can provide.

I'm not aware of any reproduction quarters or rear (load) floors for wagons, just not enough of a market I suppose. Wagon-specific parts are pretty much a used-part situation, although Kramer's has a guy making the segmented cardboard headliners, at least for the early Bs.

You sure you can't use a 4-door donor? work


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Sedan & wagon quarters for the 68-70 era are pretty different from each other, much flatter on the wagons. Actually, the Coronet & Belvedere wagon quarters look alike, as do the roofs & tailgates.
