AMF Parts Panels

[LR1970]

Hi everyone. Anyone used the AMF Parts panels? They have the 63-65 rear quarters I have been looking for. Just would like to hear feedback from anyone first before I buy anything.

Thank you

Hi everyone. Anyone used the AMY Parts panels? They have the 63-65 rear quarters I have been looking for. Just would like to hear feedback from anyone first before I buy anything.

It looks like they just have patch panels, not entire rear quarter panels.

Maybe worth a phone call and see if you can get a live human being. I’ve seen patch panels that resemble them around for a while. Someone must have some dies to crank out some runs. Kramer is the big dealer for 62-65 stuff, maybe compare prices to them. Not saying one preferred over the other, but Kramer advertises, has a rep to uphold, strong swap meet presence at the major shows.

I looked at some pics from the AMF site and I betcha some of those panels are hand formed ,not stamped. Atrocious is a word that comes to mind. Better than nothing, I suppose. Expect them to require quite a bit of work to look good.

those patches give you something to work with..... the rest is up to the you

Thanks everyone, I had a feeling the panels would be just s starting point and would need a lot of work, better than nothing I guess or starting from just a piece of flat metal.

"AMF" reminds me of those old biker tee shirts waaaaay back when....
"Adios, Mother F*cker!"

They look like the Sherman patch pieces I used. Pretty crude: they look like they were beaten out over a stump. But, there is nothing else out there. AMD did full quarters for '64 Plymouth, once, but they are gone. I asked AMD a long time ago, if they were going to do full quarters for '64 Dodge. They said these were not even on the radar.

Looks like they have those 66/67 Coronet wheel arch patches.
Not easy to find.
I've heard those are not too bad.

Thank you for the info on the patch panels. Been helping my 17 year old on his 74 RR and have only been able to find internal metal parts. Seems no one is making any additional external full panels for these cars. I know they may not be the most desirable at the moment, but for years neither were any old car. Only time will get them there, so maybe time will allow more companies to see these newer cars are what the future holds for the youth of today.
