When put my order in, most of the small items were gone and quarter panels were down to less then 100 pair per side, and that was a few days back. I wouldn't be surprised they were out of quarter panels by the middle of March. Very prophetic. I just went on the AMD website and I couldn't find a listing for '65 B-body quarters of any flavor and the patch panels were listed but out of stock.

makes no difference to me as they make NOTHHING for a 67 Valiant Sure they do. AMD makes front and rear bumpers, bumper brackets, rad supports, front fenders, door skins, inner aprons, firewalls, rocker panels, full interior floors, 4 speed humps, trans crossmembers,under rear seat floors, trunk floors, rear cross members, rear frame rails, rear shackle boxes, gas tanks and senders, windshields and other parts that fit the 67 Valiant.

It’s time to bring the manufacturing back home...
Fat chance the tooling will leave the Asian partners, so you'd need retooling...that along with all the other "Made in America" attributes needed, that will result in triple or quadruple prices, then the Mopar cheap a$$es won't buy it because GoodMark or Golden/Goldstar "offer it "cheaper"......
