Re: Body Parts Suppliers
FWIW, I had to replace most of the front end (fenders, inner fenders, core support) on my '69, due to collision damage (I managed to salvage the hood).
I was really concerned about getting everything back together after hearing all the horror stories about reproduction parts.
I used all TriPlus parts and it all went back together a lot easier than I would have ever expected.
I still have some "fine tuning" to do on parts alignment, etc. But all in all, it wasn't too bad.
I got my parts from a local Chevy restoration shop. They ordered my parts with their regular stocking order. Granted, I had to wait a couple of weeks for the parts to arrive, but I saved about $300 in shipping. (2 orders)
I hope that helped you a little bit.
