Does anyone repop rear QP patch panels for '63-'65 Plymouth B-bodies including the entire wheel arch?

I have calls into AMD and Kramer Automotive Specialties, but you are the experts.

I couldn't find photos of AMD or Kramer's products, don't know if I'm better off going to a salvage yard.

Thanks,

The Kramer wheel opening patches are a bit generic, IMO. They can be made to work if you hammer and dolly them, using only what you need. 63-5 Plymouth are the same if you can find orig steel that's useable.

Everyone sells the same one. It's a pretty crude piece IMO and will require lots of work.

Sherman and Associates is where the person bought them IIRC.

Thanks guys,
The chances of finding a local rust-free original are slim but I'll call a few sources in NY, MA & NH before I buy repop. I'll see if my bodyman is interested in wrestling with a repop. We just need a few inches wide around the arch. The remaining lower QP edges are easy.

One more thing guys,

Does anyone know if the rear wheel arches for a hardtop are the same as a '65 Belvedere WAGON?

Aaand .. are the wagon tail lights just upside down from the sedans?

If so, I might have a good shot at one in a local yard.

Wagon tail lights are different, unfortunately. Don't know about the wheel arch... It appears your resto is progressing nicely!!

Hey thanks 65Sat440,
That's a nice little sig pic you got there. Ours will be SS1 Ivory, is that the same as yours? Yeah - I'm really psyched having got this far with the resto. I have no bodywork skills, so I'm relieved to drop it in someone else's hands for a change, sit back and write some checks instead of skinning my knuckles between diaper changes and swimming lessons.
It's all good.
