Rear lower corner bowl panels. Which?

Rear lower corner bowl panels. Which?

by Biglozzer » Mon Aug 24, 2015 7:40 am
I need both lower rear corner repair panels to just above the battery tray. 1959 bus. Autocraft are not currently making them and I usually buy all mine from them as service and quality are excellent.
I see Heritage do some Red HD ones but no idea of quality. Funky Green do some but with import post they are expensive. Any recommendations on which and where? Thanks. Loz

I thought the guy who did them for autocraft was still doing them, just on his own ?

^^^I thought so too, there was a post on FB a few weeks ago with a happy customer at the end of it.

For KF try Evam Classic or C&C as they both stock KF panels and no import tax.

C&C actually stock panels....that is news to me. .
They have none of any whenever I want them...
They are ***less..
Have none
Have no idea if they are on order
Have no idea if they are coming in..
Unless I am in a parallel universe....

Hi Nik. I don't do Facebook so can't look but do you have contact details of the guy? I've already sent Autocraft and enquiry re them and waiting to hear so they may answer that way too.

Not knowing what's on an order and when it arrives is common to all KF stockists if you go that route. It is a KF issue.

Evam were the most precise about what they didn't know. And got back to me as soon as they did know. C&C didn't seem to know what they didn't know. The U.S. agents had better stock levels.

Does this person you speak of also make rear quarter to swage line as well? Autocraft say wont have any until early next year as "retooling". Im in no great hurry but i would like to get a hold of 1 whilst i have the funds
