    Hey All...Am working on a 68 Suburban, and am having some problems with the patch (read Chinese...) panels I have been supplied with. I still need a pair of lower rear quarter panels, and was told that they are different to pickup. Are there any Alliance Vendors on here that handle this stuff? Can anyone send me some links or recommend anyone to buy from? I`m not real familiar with these trucks and although Metalwork is Metalwork, I could use some pointers.....Paul.

    Call Wes at http://www.cl***icheartbeat.com/ He doesn't handle anything that he won't use on his own trucks. Call him as he isn't the best at answering email.

  8. all the aftermarket ones are cheap black overseas ones, from all the shops. better to find a donor truck if you can and i do believe the burbs and panels are different (where the lights are on the back) at least the 60-66 are.

    i would find the hambers who have yards and look in craigslist

    I just sold my '69 'burban...it had alot of rust. LMC had some patch panels for 'burbans, but the guy to talk to is Frank Ham....he is in Olympia and only deals in 67-72 Chevy/GMC stuff. Has a shop full of new parts and a yard of used trucks and Suburbans. I don't have his #, but he used to advertise in the Buy-N-Sell......
