Re: best patch panels?

[Gerry Peters <gpeters35@xxxxxxx>]

it appears all patch panal for early  b bodies are made by the same people 
but sold by a lot of different ones
try shermans (shermanparts.com )or cross canada for price
the piece they sell for the rear wheel opening  is shown as 63 65  fury but 
is in fact more of a mix of 63 and 64  due to the sharpness of the lip 
stamping/ /you don't realy tto much  notice till they are side by side
if you need the stuff for the wagon behind the rear wheel  start fabricating 
because it is different
gerry
64 330 2dr
63 bel wagon
