Donnie,
Not sure if they're the same, but this place lists stuff for Chevy's of that vintage.

i will check em out . i know the wheel opening is different but maybe the front part is close enough to use and modify. i will see ..... thanks

 

show some pics... perhaps you don't need patch panels, most of which are ill fitting crap anyway.

are you doing your own work? if not talk to the guy that is doing it befor buying anything. I've had a couple of guys go out and spend money for patch panels they didn't need.

had one guy shoe up with an NOS tailpan for his 52 chevy when all it needed was about a 3 x 8 patch at the bottom on each side. he insisted I cut up the NOS piece to fix it so I made my own patch and sold his NOS part on ebay for $150.00.

and last but not least, no matter what kind of car you have, the best patch panels come from another original car.

they are a salvage yard with nothing but Buicks when all else fails I call these guys nice little mom and pop too.

 

yeah i am doing the work .... i definately need the rear wheel openings . and trying to find a og piece of another car will next to impossible . they are always rotted there . i have been looking on and off for years ...... i may have to make some if i don't have any luck though . just really did not want to do that again . it was very time consuming last i time i made some .

 

hey rat fink let me se if i go this straight your customer brought you parts he wanted installed on his car, you sold the customers parts on ebay, and used a homemade patch to fix the customers car, did you tell the customer about this or did you cheat him out of his parts??????????????????

 

no one makes them for 59 or 60. I had to make my wheel well openings for my 59. I have seen the 59 buicks replaced with the available 59 chevies. Good luck. TP

 

tp,
thanks . how did it work out ? ... that is one option i had thought about .
