Limited to Sherman or Goodmark I guess so which is better of the 2?

Sherman and Goodmark sell the same skin. Flimsy, inaccurate.
Best option is to buy AMD 69 quarters and modify them. But, call or email AMD, and hound them to make actual 70 Coronet quarters.

AMD doesn't make one for a 70 Coronet and I am not buying a 69 panel to hack up and hope it works.

Ironic the current AMD ad on this site has a picture of a 70 Coronet when they dont offer much.

The sherman skins came today and they aren't horrible, pretty quick I will find out how well they fit or don't fit.

Pay real close attention to the side marker light stamping. I ended up having a die made to correct the stamping.

They look good and the lights fit,the bumper recess doesn't match up with the 1/4 extension so some tweaking for sure

The “Sherman” 70 quarter skins are pretty pathetic. They are flimsy, have rounded folds at the door jamb etc, and are actually oversized, because like all of those older skins, they were designed as a quick fix to slide over top of the original panel. But that’s the only thing available. I will take the AMD 69 quarters and modify them for my 70. At least the AMD panels are thick gauge and accurate stampings.

The steel thickness is exactly the same as factory I checked it,amd doesn't make a 70 panel so a 69 wouldn't be accurate either
