Hi people, Was just wondering if anyone knows of "patch panels" available for OUR cars. I have a '77 2-door with rusted rear 1/4's on the very bottom. From other mavs I've seen this was a common area for rust so, are there patch panels out there or do you have make your own? I see many posts about floor pans and mine have a few little holes in them but no one has offered a source except cutting them out of still solid cars.any advice? Thanks in advance!
We have restored quite a few Mavericks and Comets in our body shop and we have always made our own repair panels. Once in a while you might find someone on eBay selling complete quarter panels but that is alittle extreme if all you need to fix is the lower quarters. A good metal man can make the panels by hand and they would look as good as the originals.
repair panels I have bought some panels from Autokrafters.com and am planning to use them soon. They seen like they will fit when they are compared to the car.
