Hey guy's, Is it true that Dynacorn sheet metal for a first gen camaro fits better than Goodmarks?

I have noting but problems with Goodmark. The only dynacorn quarter we have done fit great. I will never use Goodmark again.

Yeah, i heard they were different. Supposedly Goodmark is not registered with GM since Dynacorn started producing their bodys. I have Goodmark quarters for my 67 camaro and they do not fit well. I was considering buying a pair from dynacorn to see how they fit. Now don't let this rub off the wrong way, I know they are both aftermarket and could possibly need some work.

From what I hear, Goodmark sells the Golden Legion panel. They (Goodmark) don't produce their own panels. I used a Golden Legion panel for my driver side, and it fit like a glove. I just test fitted my passenger side quarter, and can't say the same about it. Actually, I'm trying to ship it back and try another one! Not really sure how it passed QC.

Dynacorn has truck parts. They even make new 47-54 cabs. I have noticed what may fit great from Goodmark (Golden Legion), may not fit with Dynacorn, or vice versa. I use both, some parts fit equally well, others are worth the metal they are stamped out of. We have also used EMI, which is stamped here in the US. More expensive yes, but they are worth every penny. The only issue with EMI is they stay away from most parts already duplicated by someone else

I heard that both the Goodmark panels and the Dynacorn panels are stamped out in the same factory in China? I used Goodmark sheet metal on my 69 Camaro and it required some tweeking to say the least .

I know Goodmark has changed some tooling. Some stuff definitely used to have problems. I think BOS hung Goodmark on Penny and everything seemed fined according to Steve if I remember the post correctly after the accident. I also know there are some Dynacorn pieces I wouldn't bother with either. I think both comapnies are hit and miss depending on what part it is.
