C2 Replacement body panels

[Scott Marzahl]

Does anyone know of a good manufacturer of replacement body panels. I have been using some made by Corvette Image for my '67, however they are now Gel Coating their panels and I didn't care for the taillight panel I just received and installed. It was very thick and the Gel Coat was 25-30 mils thick. I'm concerning about it cracking in a few years but maybe I shouldn't be. I need to buy a new top surround and maybe a fender or two.

Thanks

I dont think that you will have any trouble with the gelcoat cracking after it is installed. Some parts are slightly thicker than the originals, but in general it is not significant. You will not find any better parts than those, and that includes the GM 67 rear panel, at least the one that you could still get for the last 15 years or so. That thing is an abortion.

Suggest you check with Roger or Cindy Dickinson 509-365-3647 or 509-365-0033
They have been making press molded panels longer than any I know. They are located in Lyle, Washington They will know exactly what Corvette Image is selling or anyone else for that matter.
