66 delta 88

Anyone know of any alternative rocker panels I could use on my 1966 delta 88 as they are very rare or if there's a custom shop out there that might make them??

There may be repro rockers but the fit would not be good from my experience with the 59 rockers I bought repop. I believe it best to patch yours or have them cut from a parts car from Arizona.

The rockers from a Cutlass or 442 are not as wide. I doubt a chevy or buick or pontiac would have the same rocker as body lines were different.

Ok thanks,ill keep my eye out body and paint won't be till quit some time down the road!!just hoping to find some for a rainy day.The door mirror on the other hand I will need sooner than later,the car was re-painted back in the 80's and has been barn stored for over 20 years.The door mirrors were never put back on and the mounting holes were filled and painted over .The rest of the body,frame and floor pans are in Awsome shape only a few small rusty spots on the rockers.Engine was rebuilt back then too and runs like a top.
