We got our quarters from AMD for the 73 `Cuda, and I have to say they are VERY impressive. Thanks Corey, We bought the car wi a set of Full goodmarks, and we sold them thinking the skins on the car were gonna work, Well NOPE, we found rust coming through the "new" skins on the car, so we decited to do it once and not worry about it later. So as a comparison the AMD quarters are crisper, thicker, and have every factory dimple, kink, crease, everything. The goodmark quarters were not as crisp, were missing the factory dimple in the rocker, and they looked and felt flimsy. Hats off to AMD, I hope to see more parts from them in the future. And thanks Corey for saving me some cash on the parts. Kasey

We use a lot of AMD sheet metal and have been extremely pleased with it. We have installed valance panels, fenders, hoods, complete passenger floor pans, trunk floor pans, rear body panels, etc. Just recently I had my first problem with a stamped part. It's a right side 68-70 B-body door skin. It's formed wrong at the front top area where it meets the door. I'll be adding and subtracting some metal along the flat upper door edge where it is supposed to curve to prevent hanging on the fender. Not a big deal, unless you have painted the inside of your door. Another good reason why we always test fit our panels before doing any paint work. Steve www.clarkclassic.com

How is the AMD glass for e-bodies? Anyone have any feedback. I see that it's licensed by Mopar.

That doesn't sound good, but I understand they are addressing the e-body door glass issue and are expecting the new ones mid-October.
