  • K -body rear deck side panel availability

    Is there a source for any NOS or used K-body (55) deck side panels? I am in need of a right side rear deck panel, in the parts book: group 2360-99 (plate 23-38), Part #304666, the piece that extends from trunk opening over to the crown of the rear quarter.

    Classic Enterprises produces patch panels to repair the channels that receive the trunk weatherstrip if that's all that's needed.
    I believe Dennis DuPont had these in fiberglass at Reedsville three months ago.

      If you need the patch panels for the weatherstrip they are easy to build. I built both sides on my hawk body.

        Are You referring to replacing a small/very small portion of this panel.if the entire panel has gone,I wouldn't say it's an easy panel to make - rather kind of involving at least for the average Person.

            I used Classic Enterprise panels, though not these specific ones; Dennis' company produces good quality products and if honest, I wish I'd bought his complete floor pans (both sides), which wold have saved a huge amount of time farting around with panel fabrication
