It wasn’t very long ago that replacement sheetmetal for classic any classic Mopar meant whatever you could unbolt or saw off of a donor car in a salvage yard. Thankfully, companies like Auto Metal Direct are pouring millions of dollars into developing the tooling and stamping out hoods, fenders, doors and quarter panels (not to mention floors, trunk pans and subframes) of many of the most popular body styles.
With AMD’s latest crop of OE-style quarters for all ’66 and ’67 Plymouth B-bodies (that includes ’66-’67 Belvedere, Satellite and GTX) anyone looking to get their two-door hardtop looking straight has finally got what they’ve been looking for.
“Stamped from high quality OE gauge steel on our exclusive new tools,” Auto Metal Direct’s announcement stated, “each panel features the correct shape, size, bends, curves and holes, like original. EDP coated to help protect against rust and corrosion.”
Priced at $899 each, you’re gonna save on the hours and material patch welding, smoothing, sanding and straightening rotted, wrecked or otherwise ruined original quarters. And with every B-body quickly going up in value, it’s likely any new project you pick up will need some help in one way or another from AMD.
