Road Runner Nest

Drum roll please.....you should have them in or about 2 months.
My review: After just installing an NOS quarter on my latest project; AMD's piece was no more work than the NOS piece. Wheel openings follow the tubs and lower sections mate up to the rocker and trunk extension like original. Rejoice, they're finally on their way.
Dual and non dual rear valances look awesome. I've asked for one more tiny revision. So one more quick test fit and they'll be ready too.
Outer wheel tubs will be out shortly.
Extensions are already out, as well as the full floor.

Thanks for the heads up. I've been looking at AMD's line up and was hoping somebody would test one first.


Did you do the full quarter or lower patch?

Full quarters. No partials available, but if you only need a portion, they're still worth it for the accuracy and fit.

WHAT THE COST LOOKING LIKE......I`M GOING TO NEED 3 SETS AND MAYBE 4 IF THE BOARD TALK`S ME INTO THE V CODE CAR.......

I am pleased. My 72 rt rear quarter is a train wreck!

you should have them in or about 2 months.

Havent we heard this from them for like the last 3 yrs?

True, but Gary has been intimately involved in the test fitting of these products so he knows that of which he speaks... finally, this is GREAT news! I'm going to have to save up the bucks for a pair plus wheel housings and trunk extensions just in case I ever get the energy and time to do my Runner over the RIGHT way before I die...

I haven't checked actual availability yet, but hoping these lower patches (need both rears for mine), are as functional as the full quarters you did.

I think an advantage of the patches, and I'll volunteer as test monkey for these later this year, are a good idea if you need floor extensions, have your lower quarters rotted away but the rest of the quarter is solid as in my case. My right side is rotted heavily in the back, solid in front. Driver's side is solid but the lower back half was crushed by a hit and run a long time ago.

Just trying to save some $$$ first...

Patches will eventually be available. Exactly when, I don't know, but I do know that the full quarters will arrive first in about 2 months.

Awesome!!! Hopefully in time for Carlisle so I can pick them up there and save on shipping!!!


Oh, and I'm still waiting to get my money back for the quarters I pre-ordered from Laysons on 04/07/2003!!! Yes, six years ago

has anyone have any XP with http://autobodyspecialt.com/??? they offer the same and even more parts than AMD. the parts are on the internet but are not avalible??? why do they do that??? I need them soon because I've started to restore my ride: black betty. hopefully someone here has the awnsers.

ABS is a distributor of AMD's parts, as is Stephens Perf and others... They list those items that are anticipated to be ready during that years catalog printing.

Is AMD separate from GoodMark?

I know that GoodMark was going to put out these quarters after the previous 3-4 vendors dropped the ball...as far back as 5-6 years ago.

I knew nothing of AMD until they put out a S-load of 71-74 B body parts like the upper and lower cowl area and lower A-pillar pieces. I've heard good things about their stuff.

I just spoke with Alan from AMD, he told me that the panels are now in production and should be available in 30-45 days. He said it was just a matter of getting them boxed and shipped from the factory (Taiwan?) and sent to distributors. I hope they're available at Carlisle so I can save on shipping and possible damage!!

They've always been 30-45 days out. I called 5 years ago and got the same answer. Until somebody actually has a set in their grubby hands, I refuse to believe it. Excuse my attitude, but after being told 10 times over the last 5 years that they would be avail. in 30-60 days, I've become a bit jaded.
