where can I find replacement body parts for my rusted out 1987"t".Have looked in to option of replacing the whole body but decided to keep it original and fix it up.Jcwhitney has poor choise as some other sites on the net..?Also I have heard that POR 15 is good rust fighter ,has anybody tried it ?
 
I am doing a resto myself and they only make floor panels. I looked everywhere for parts ebay,craigslist, and this board for parts. The parts I found were local to me doors,hood others I had to have shipped and that gets expensive. The parts are out there ,you have just find them! Por 15 is good stuff . Someday I hope they make repair panels (doors,quarter panels,fenders) . I dont know why they make quarters for monte carlos but not for the regals. Good Luck!

first of all thanks on the reply - I guess it might be a good idea to purchase a shell and cut the parts that you need of it ..
