Ron,
You have to be careful with the NOS stuff. Just because it's NOS doesn't mean it'll fit much better. It depends on when it was pressed 1970 or 1980 using the same press and tooling!!
Whichever route you take, the more important thing is that your builder really corrects and mistakes the quarters may have, and makes sure the doors and fenders are on to line everything up.
I had a guy put my quarters on my 69 Firebird. On the pass side he tacked them maybe an 1/8" off...this cause huge headaches towards the front of the car. Be sure ALL gaps are perfect before permanently welding them in!
