I have a 1971 Olds 98 ambulance and the olfd girl has some rust issues. Any suggestions on wheree to find body parts? Need front floorboards, all 4 rocker panels, drivers rear 1/4....the rest is probably repairable. Any help with Olds 98 and/or ambulance repair is appreciated!

 

How bad are the rust holes? Maybe the quickest thing is to get yourself some sheet metal, sheet metal shears, gloves, rivets, rivet gun, drill, bits, hammer, anvil, file, spring clamps and bondo. Other than that, try DVAP.com if you are near Arizona. Post pictures.

 

Going to take some pics this week. Not sure how bad they really are, they have been fiberglassed over - thinking pretty rotten. Thanks for the reply!

 

Welcome to CO and good luck in your search.

 

The floorboards can come from any 71-76 GM C-body car (98, Electra, Cad) and probably B (88, Impala, Bonneville, LeSabre)

The quarter may be a different story, depending on how much custom coachwork ws done to mate it to the roof. I think all the extra length on a Cotner-Bevington was between the wheels so a Ninety Eight quarter panel may work without a lot of fuss.
