Ok guy's heres the deal I have a 1969 standard camaro coupe with a 350.The front end is a little damaged and right now im wanting to buy the best repro parts available.I'm going to install new inner fender wheel wells(one is bent the other has rust).I'm also going to install Fenders and a Radiator support(One fender smashed the other rusted)I don't want to pay the price of NOS parts I don't have the money for them.In your opinions what is the best aftermarket repro company around?I have catalogs from several camaro parts dist.(Rick's,Classic Industries,NPD ect.)I was thinking of going with the parts from Classic Industries because it is closest to my location and I can save on shipping by picking them up myself.Buying repro parts what do I have to look forward to?Also I plan on getting a very expensive paint job on it but with the repro I read that you have to use bondo on them to smooth them.Will I just be wasting my money with the expensive paint job only to have the bondo crack a few years down the road?I want to be able to look down the side of the car and see a perfectly smooth and straight body.Tell me what you think.Sorry about the long rambling. smile.gif
