Body panel source

Saw this on FB today so I checked out the website. Wish there were ‘63 parts but figured someone might be interested. 1965 - 1968.

If you're looking to use epoxy to fix the holes, Splash Zone marine epoxy holds up very well. I also have a set of D-ports that have Moroso AB epoxy, and has been ran for 10+ years with no problems

Sometimes a mechanical restoration makes more sense than trying to fix every rusted panel and restore the car to perfection.

Make it roadworthy and don’t sweat the small stuff.
