New guy here with a couple questions on restoring the quarter panels on my 79 elky. I can find quarters for every elky up to a 77. The only pnales I have found are from GM and the cost is way too much. GM price is 675.00 for each side. The gm panles are from the roof down. I don't want to change all this for the lower quarters. Can anyone help? I am in need of a dash or a dash cover. I want to cover the whole dash not just the top, is there a cover that will fit the front also that looks good and fits properly? This elky is original except for the wheels which, when I find the original ones I will put them on. I have the original 267 w/ac and a turbo 350. Original miles is 235000. Only thing I have done since buying this elky was the cam was changed due to the original being soft, two exhaust and the brakes three times. Looking for rear dics brakes soon.Any help is greatly appreaciated :)

Almost forgot. The frame was replaced from the doors back from a malibu wagon along with the body mounts and a new gas tank. New suspension comming soon :)
