71 Charger Rear Quarter Patch Panel

Im looking for a 71 Dodge Charger rear quarter patch panel right side only. The pic is the left side I already have. Apparently, AMD has stopped making them. Does anyone know whos still making them? Or know anyone that will be at Chrysler Carlisle that has one for sale or knows anyone that has one I can have shipped? Thank you!

Don't tell me that, as I need to order a pair to.

Just confirmed with Ted Steven’s that they have been out of stock and discontinued for awhile now. The three choices we have now are:
Finding ‘lost stock’ that an AMD forgot to post (not very likely)
Find earlier version that was for sale by Golden Star type company (fit and finish is not really good with some of these).
Sourcing a parts car, which is very exspensive due to most people don’t want to part out such cars when they are now collectible.

Someone finds a source that’s somewhat close, please post it here.

You could buy the full quarter panel, but at $700 cost and $150-$200 shipping makes for for an expensive patch panel.

OP might look for a really good fab shop - like someone who does racecar tin and has an english wheel.
Had to do that for one of my early Bs for a lower quarter patch panel.
A fabricator buddy of mine does that kind of work, but he's in the middle of a move from SoCal to AZ.

I was told by Stephens just this last weekend at Carlisle that I'm very lucky I got the last pair of 72 charger full quarters and amd will not be making them anymore ??? only 71s and you will have to weld in 72 marker light holes ..

bad news. In fact, it's worse than bad news. I checked with sources in Asia Europe, Australia and south America and found nothing. Then it happened, the one place in the whole world that says (supposably) in stock is . . . . . . . . . . . .


























Jim's Auto Parts. The most dishonest Mopar parts dealer in the History of all of creation. Be prepared for hidden charges like EXTRA over size shipping, prices hiked 'mysteriously' up before shipping and just added to your credit card without contacting you., insane shipping AND handling costs and extra credit card fees you didn't know even existed. I that rude lady is still alive, image worse than no customer service. Like a level of rudeness you were to have if you met with a Karen in a strip mall parking lot. Yup, worst case scenario. So your looking at over $300 or just the patch panel. I'm just going to buy a full quarter panel and cut it up. Still easily cheaper and better than dealing with Jim's parts.

Looking at those pics, I'd probably just go ahead and install the whole quarter if it's an AMD.

no need to replace the whole quarter panels as only the lower portions are rotted. The cost and complication of working body lines for a un-needed full quarter swap, nope. Besides, I'm not returning mine to stock, but making a Fury Road tribute car since it's soo trashed.

if it's a fury road tribute car, why the need for a factory type patch panel ?
grab some 20ga sheetmetal and have at it.

Because years down the road, I could decide to make it a little nicer. It really depends on my budget and how many parts I can find over the years. The project could and probably will change as I get more parts in. Since I have no sheetmetal for the car currently, it could be a Mad Max car. If I get usable fenders, trunklid and hood it, I could make it into a drift track car. If I end up winning lotto, full resto into a hemi clone. My projects change as I accumulate parts and vehicles. Won’t be happening for a couple years, but it’s best to buy repro metal now before it all gets discontinued and hoard it away for later use. That’s what happened with the 1970 CUDA elastomeric rubber bumpers from AMD that were only available for 4 months before being discontinued. These costed me around $800-$900 for the pair. If I would have waited a til now, it would cost me more that double that price. Sometimes, hoarding parts and cars is a good thing.

migsBig,

The pic of the Charger with the AAR style hood in your post. Is someone making that style hood for Chargers or is that just a drawling?

I have a hood custom made to look like an aar form a bulge hood looks factory top and bottom! if it wasn't so difficult, I would post Pics. I would send them to you or anyone that would like to see it and or post them?? its fully functional air grabber. I love how it turned out and would do it again!!!! needs a better paint job?

Thanks Ink. Appreciate it. Yes thats interesting on that hood. Could you post some pics of it or PM some to me?

THank you!

Just got an e-mail from AMD and there on-line catalog shows the lower rears again, do not see them on the website but catalog states lower qtr patches are back. I guess it’s worth a phone call.

That would be nice. My buddy Terry (aka 'Kickin Wing) scored me a driver side rear patch panel at the Nats. If I can score the other tree quarter wells patch panels,

Still nothing on AMD site. They as so behind on gettin Mopar inventory,
