Re: rocker panels 70-72
Lyndon,
If You are going to restore them don't do anything ..Let the plater strip them and re-anodize them.
I had mine stripped By buffing them out. I then took them to the anodizer who said he would not re-anodize them now because the buffing process impregnated little bits of anodize into the aluminum and they would have to sit too long in the tank to get them all out. The best laid plans..........
If however you dont plan to reanodize them than a good buffing will sure make them look great , at least for awhile !

You might be our new best friend.
I'd guess 4 feet long, but my cars are not here to measure.
Anyone able to check?
I have two sets (4 panels) that need work.
