Got a reply to this question on another forum that Auto Body Specialties has the lower patch panels.  Has anyone here tried them?

SINCE YEARS they have included those around, but allways WILL TAKE 6 MONTHS TO GET THEM MADE... that is the tipical response as far I have known ( not personally experience ). But you can try to call though

Note the FULL OE 71/72 full quarter replacement but showing a 68 pic ;)

It would be great if they offered these for sale today?? Instead of we will have them soon!!!
I need lower rear patches also, and will have to make them or have them made. I would think that a lot of 3rd gen owners could use them and they would only need to make for 71/72 and 73/74

And look below the 68-70 rear quarters. They look like e-body front fender. that they call rear b-body quarters.  Also that battery tray is not even close to being a 71-74 Charger's.  These guys look like a Joke.
BTW we all still need to bug AMD and Goodmark to get those 71-72 Charger quarters made ASAP.  :brickwall:  Front fenders would be nice too.  :yesnod:

they look like 73/74 ( diff than 71/72 ), but still not the right one

Year One sells lower quarter patch panels. $ 225.00 each. That doesn't include them bending you over on the shipping costs either.

Those pieces would be quite easy to fab.

AMD told me that the 71,72 Charger 1/4 panels are in production right now,and will be available in NOV 09. They will offer them as full OEM style 1/4 panels and as skins too.   :2thumbs:

How can they Justify 450.00 (a set) when they sell full quarters for about the same price (68-70 Chargers)

It was not the 1/4's that turned it from project car to parts car.  It was the fact that the heater core must have been leaking for a long time and the car needs floor pans and some firewall repair.  It could be saved but I was not willing to spend that money needed to fix all the damage.  Anyone need a 72 project car or parts?

Maybe, Your profile does not give your location. Where do you live. ?
Also, all your problems can be fixed, if you have the desire.
