Cheap Reproduction Panels

[1955LSX]

Most "aftermarket" panels are just re-boxed & manufactured by the same companies. I just fit new fenders, doors, quarters, etc from OER on a 69 project & everything fit good with some massaging. I've also used dynacorn & other aftermarket vendors & experienced the same thing. Haven't found a panel that fits perfect out of the box, better than trying to save an old rusty, mangled original IMO..

We have been selling the AMD stuff since we got our first piece 6 months ago. I am completely sold! And yes it is one of the original Goodmark guys that started AMD to offer a better product.

We used everything they offer on our Project Unfair including their awesome aluminum front clip, bumpers, deck lid. The quarters are almost 50% heavier (thicker) then the other aftermarket panels, we are weighing the weight difference as part of our story.

We will be getting a prototype set of doors for Unfair that will be thicker and better fit. The repro door that is out there now will dent if you close the door! Can't wait for the doors! Been a big problem for us.

They do not make everything yet and we were forced to us some stuff they do not make yet. But they are R and D ing stuff everyday, and to do it these guys are taking apart perfect original bodies and having them reverse engineered.

If anyone needs any AMD stuff, hit me up. We have some really good shipping deals right now.

AMD does not re-box & sell Goodmark or Dynacorn parts, they have their own tooling and if you actually have ever had AMD part in one hand and Goodmark in the other ,you'd know which one is AMD simply by the weight, their full OEM style quarters can weigh over 70lbs .The metal is alot thicker, I just got a set of AMD inner wheelhouses for 69 Dart at the shop to do the mini-tubs and they must be 16ga,no joke.Very thick and heavy. Can you say that for Goodmark or any other aftermarket brand?
