Parts needed to complete my 442 restoration!

I've fabricated most of the pieces I could. Now I just have a few areas that need replacement panels. To fabricate these would require $$$$ equipment. If anyone knows of reproduction or original salvaged parts please share your resources. I would like to finish this car this summer.

Parts I'm looking for:

Left upper quarter panel/roof

Trunk filler panel under the rear glass (for a 71 442 2 door hardtop)

Floor panels

Right quarter panel outer housing lip

PLEASE HELP, I've been looking for awhile now!

I am in california just east of sacramento. Shipping wouldn't be to expensive. I've uploaded pictures of the areas I need to replace. Take a look and let me know if you can get rid of those pieces and what you want for them. I really appreciate the help.

I would think finding good sheet metal in your neck of the woods wouldn't be a problem? Have you tried north of you? Yuba City, Chico, Paradise, Grass Valley, Browns Valley, Red Bluff etc...There used to be a yard in Sutter just west of MV/YC, south of the Buttes that had a ton of late 50, 60 & 70 cars.
Last time I was out that way there were several yards with good sheet metal.

Try West coast sheet metal/GMsports.

I've done some google searching but haven't come up with much so far. I'll look around those areas though. Are there any specific places anyone knows of? The places I have called have told me to find olds parts on the east coast????

I may have the sail panel/roof portion. I'll try to get some photos for you this weekend. I'm located up in Southern Oregon. John

I just wanted to follow up with you about the sail panel. I've attached a paint shop doodle of the approximate piece I need. Please let me know whether you have it or not.

Thank you for your time
