You would think with all the technology we have nowadays, computers, lasers etc they'd be able to produce parts that are spot on.

There are several manufacturers of quarter panels and I think these are probably dies that date back from the 80s when the initial aftermarket stuff was being made. But yeah today with laser scanning they can have perfect measurements to make their dies out of. There are still many factory Ford replacement panels available so they could use a perfect unused original to scan but...

Good for you inspecting it. But Half panels are only good for cuting up for patch panels. Buy Full quarters for a quarter replacement quality is different.

I never reccomend anyone buy quarter skins as they never fit well and often aren't much less than a full quarter. The pass side units fit very well but for some reason they have had issues with the driver's side for years now. There are 4 different companies making quarter panels in Taiwan and goodmark buys the lowest quality ones. The one I used fit extremely well. A factory piece would be nice but isn't worth it on this car.

What would you say about a complete door shell that will not latch because the wall is short 3/8 and you can't even put the handle in the hole... 70 mustang driver door shell UNUSABLE.. and CLASSIC INDUSTRIES don't want it back! Destroy for refund...

Great video. I need to inspect my panels a bit closer after watching this. They were well reviewed and my initial measurements seemed good.

The pass side was a Golden Star and the fit was overall passable. Drivers sides have issues like we all know. I have a Dynacorn one on order from a local truck resto store. If it was in stock I can get it same day but they are backordered and waiting for a container from Taiwan. Will see how that one goes. It can't be any worse. The outer wheel houses are poor fits no matter what and I do not plan on replacing it. I plan to use the new panel as a donor and cut and weld patches with it.

Good info. Too bad Dallas Mustang closed. There is Texas Mustang in Hewitt, about 90 minutes south of Summit Racing. Don't know anything about them tho.

I never bought anything from DM. I usually like to buy parts from Classic in Oklahoma city. I picked up my fenders and other parts there. I'd rather make that drive then across the metroplex to Dallas. Besides it's an excuse to have lunch with a friend that lives up there. And sadly I was out of the country when DM had their going out of business sale so I missed out on that.

I picked up the Goodmark one at Summit and the one I ended up using I picked up at Southwest Classics in Arlington.
