71 Vista Cruiser Quarters

Vistaman · 07-31-2007, 03:20 PM

I am rebuilding my 1971 Vista Cruiser and I need good rear quarter panels. Thewheel well openings are bad on my car. Anybody know where I can find quarters or a body?

Location? And how much cancer? Year One (and probably others) have patch panels available.

The wheel wells and the bottom of the quarters. The drivers side curve was "rubbed" at one time and they tried to fix it, but not well, so I need the whole lower quarter. I tried Year One and others. They don't have vista cruiser panels. I found ones on OPG stating they were for the V.C. but when I got them, they did not have the same curve and the wheel well stainless trim bead area was not angled to accept the molding correctly.

Bad news! There's a guy here in San Antonio that wanted to sell a Vista project car...but wanted to sell the whole thing. Don't know the condition. I only heard about it. Let me know and I'll send you his info.

I would consider the whole body, but it could cost me more to transport it to PA than its worth. It could be interesting though to find out if he is willing to cut them off, if he is going to junk it. Please send me his info and I see what he wants to do. I guess if there are other trim parts or glass, it may be worth it. Thanks for the effort!
