70 series reproduction body panels

[FullyLitLED]

Hello everyone,

I am starting to work with a company overseas to make reproduction body panels for the 70 series. Starting off with floor panels and transmission tunnels. Just completed the production of the first set. They are not available for sale or pre-order yet. I will be testing these on my BJ70 restoration and RJ77 restoration.

I am overseas right now so I get to oversee production of these first hand and we have a unit we are using to measure and test panel fitment and form.

Hoping to expand the product line to include ambulance door lower patch and front door lower patch, for now….here is the first set of front floor patches.

Would really appreciate everyone’s input and roasts! As a long time vendor and member here on mud I know I don’t have to request the roasts! Hahaha

It's probably not a part you will sell every week or month but every customer needing one of these should be thankful that you are offering this !

When you say overseas where are these panels being made? Japan? Europe? Australia? China?

Based on the 40 series group

Produced in the Philippines? Or imported from China, then resold from the Philippines?

Hello,

Consider 73/74 Series rear side panels once you are done with the parts you are working on.

As mentioned above, more than a few owners will thank you. There are rust repair projects that would benefit from your efforts.

Just a suggestion.

+1 on this! I bought from @joekatana and they give me peace of mind in case I one day have a rotting rear quarter!
