I haven't heard anything bad about AMD yet.
I hope they keep up the quality AND keep adding stuff.
I'm sending them a request that they start making Dutchman Panels...
If they're already making them, I missed it!!
Jer. (I'm really liking those valances, Tom.)

If they're already making them, I missed it!! Jer. (I'm really liking those valances, Tom.) Just curious Jer.... why do you want to see them make dutchman panels? From my perspective, having a long history of selling 3rd Gen parts, I don`t see a legit need for them. Its not as if used ones were commanding top $$ on the used market. In the past, I have put them on Ebay about a 1/2 dozen times for $100, with shipping options... and have managed to sell one. Outside of rear floor pans, 1/4 skins, possibly PB hoods, and to a even lesser degree deck lids, I honestly do not see a lot of good new sheetmetal to be reproduced. I have never seen as strong of a market for additional repro 3rd Gen sheet metal as others do. One of the problems with anyone doing PB hoods would be deciding which year style cowl vents to go with. A lot of what is already available is simply available because it is shared with E bodies...front floor pans, 71-72 inner fenders, etc etc. Over the years I have read a lot of posts about the parts "needed" for our hobby. A lot of them have really left me scratching my head. Things like standard rear valances, 73-74 grilles, front valances.... items that do not currently command top dollar one the used market. I am sure that some reading this will think that fenders should be reproduced. However, until the used market is such that good used ones sell for $500/$600 each, I just don`t see that happening.

However, until the used market is such that good used ones sell for $500/$600 each, I just don`t see that happening. this is the moment when I say... there are More B body Plymouths ( GTX/RR/Satellites ) around in USA than Chargers to say there is enough ( or more ) market for those ? If not, then: WHY THE HELL Plymouth quartes are being reproed and not Dodges ? talking about of course 3rd gens of course on both cases Dutchman panels are needed for those with full vinyl tops... I think you won't find someone that is not rusted out.... just that those are easy to patch and even I know some ppl who were looking for, mostly of ppl simply tends to patch them because less job needed and if you fit back the vinyl top, doesn't need too much detail on them. I'm one of those who would like to replace mine, but is not an urgent stuff to make.

So Nacho, are you saying that 3rd Gen Plymouth 1/4`s are now being reproduced? I really don`t follow that stuff close enough to know for sure...but I have always read that they did not make 1/4`s for 71-72 Roadrunners and Satellites.
Heck, at least you 73-74 Charger guys have the TABCO 1/4 skins. I guess the side marker difference between 71 and 72 is what keeps those years from being reproduced.
