Hello Guys

I have a Question to the Restoration Experts

Could anybody tell me from what Manufacturer i should
Take the very best Quality and fitting metalparts:

- Rockers (Specially the cargoside Rocker) and evetually also the driverside
- Partly repair of the cargofloor, so i would Need
A Almost Perfect pressed Matching to Original pressoptic,
So i mean a repairpanel, because think i ll just repair a Part of the rightside
Cargofloorarea, and Thats the reason why i would Need it Perfect
Matching Same Press, because i Plan to just Replace it Partly right side

I Heard- that Autocraft and the funky Green Panels should be very good.
But what Part is from what manufacturer the best Part?
And what about wolfsburgwest Parts?

Would be happy to hear from you all....

Thanks.

Klassic fab is the best.
You can get them from Bustoration.

I have used Klassic Fab panels & I am impressed by their quality.

A few years ago, I tried to buy AutoCraft panels but the distributor was so hard to contact. I think the distributor had a website called Vintagewagen.com. I wonder what happened to that distributor?

I heard AutoCraft can be bought at a company called Aircooled Treasury.

What panels did you replace?

Read this before you buy any panels.

I used the WW rocker and it fit perfectly. There have been issues with all of them. AC and KF rockers were short but I don't know if that's still an issue.

Autocraft can be bought at Wolfsburg West.
