I have an NOS set of late B body qtr. panels ( Cordoba/Magnum/Charger ) and looking for somebody who'll repop them.

I know it's a shot in the dark, but a worthwhile shot none the less.

Thanks

Full quarters would be an extremely limited market. Patches might sell though.

Get every Magnum,Cordoba, Charger SE owner to contact the reproduction sheetmetal company that you offer the NOS panels to, and ask for them to be reproduced. If there is enough demand, maybe it will happen.

Well guys, anyone remember that about 6 months ago there was a lengthy post here about all the sheet metal AMD was discontinuing and selling at half price? Snowballs chance for late 70's b body parts.

Agreed.. And it's time to actually use those quarters that keep getting offered up once a year...If It didn't fly before then why would it now ??

If you feel like there is some market for these late 70's quarters, take the next step. Use the quarters you have, have them 3D scanned. The deliverable is an electronic model and potentially a CAD file that would be needed to build tooling to manufacture these. After the part is scanned, sell or use the quarters. The electronic file takes up no more room than a USB stick. No idea what it costs to do a scan of that size, but these days you can likely find someone that can do that in any major city.

I was thinking the same thing. Scanning technology has come a long way.
Would be easy for a single layer item vs an assembly like a hood or trunk.
