who has the best prices on repair panels for a 68 t2? getting ready to cut and weld pretty soon. one other question, what are your thoughts on applying a rust inhibitor, then primer , then applying the bondo and paint. thanks , jon

I have ordered from this place many times over the years... they sell alot of the same panels that other suppliers have.

I have used rust inhibitor (OSPHO... phosphoric acid based green liquid)
see the link...

http://www.ospho.com/

for many years as well... it works! and if used correctly is compatable underneath auto-primers. I have also had no trouble using fillers over PPG epoxy based primer when sprayed over OSPHO, Just sprayed another coat of epoxy primer over the finish sanded bodywork and then the primer surfacer etc... until ready for top- coat

thanks for the help. i thoght that it would work that way. i was more worried about controlling the rust first, than getting it to look perfect . thanks again
