Cowl / windshield area patch panel - 68-72 Cutlass - See Pic

Hello,

I need a rust free patch for the cowl / windshield area on my '68. Let me know what you have. It would need to be shipped to 56001.

Thanks.

This is the patch piece I would like to get:

I'll use the available repro parts if I have to, but I would prefer a piece cut off of a car to ensure that it fits the contours w/ little to no extra work and covers the entire area that I need fixed.

That is a little worse then mine was, but I cut it out, cleaned up the lower edge. ( mine was not that bad) And I cut strips of metal, shaped them, riveted them in place, kitty hair, body fill, smooth out with icing, primed and painted. It looked good until the paint shop go to it. The photos are from after the paint shop messed it up. They spilled something on it and sanded it past my filler, then painted it. That is way it is noticeable. They were not doing any black on the car. (Sorry, that is a different thread.)

I'm in the process of stripping a 72 "S" with bad floors and quarters. Once I get the windshield and dash out I will know better if this part is good or not. The body mount boxes are not rotted, so hopefull this will be fine. I'm cutting off the rest of the windshield frame for myself so hopefully its good.
