Improvements in Firebird reproduction quarter panels?
The 1967 Firebird quarter panels that I purchased in 2010 from Classic Industries and have not yet installed (life happens) are of questionable quality especially around the trunk and tail panel areas. Are the current reproduction quarter panels any better versus circa 2010 panels? I see various retailers refer to new tooling. Who currently carries the highest quality quarter panels? Eckler’s quarter panels are nearly two times the price of those at Summit, Classic Industries, YearOne, etc. Are they of higher quality? I thought the panels were being manufactured by only 1-2 Asian companies so everyone essentially had the same panels but there could be differences in quality control. Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated since I am contemplating ordering new quarter panels. Thanks! Mike
