advise on buying replacement panels

[1977FJResto]

I have noticed my 40 could use some new body panels. After looking online for replacements I see that everyone that sells these panels is priced about the same, give or take. My question for you guys who have used these companies is what company produces the best fitting, highest quality parts? Costomer service would be nice but if the part is the best I can deal with someones attitude. I will be replacing my drivers side floor, rocker, and rear sill panel. (maybe DS quarter too) Your advise is greatly appreciated

I'm not sure about that, I thought EBI made their own parts.

Canada Cruisers made their own panels as well.
But they're history since the beginning of 2008.

I don't know what happened to Canada Cruisers, but if I recall correctly they were out of Port Coquitlam.

Yeah he closed up. Spencer is a nice guy. I talked with him a few times. Just not enough work.

Thanks for the replies. I went with CCOT, they have my parts ready now and are relitively local, about 3 hours. Thanks again

Well from what I hear, he was very sick a few years ago. This caused him to lose the drive to keep the business rolling. So he sold every last panel to 4 wheel auto in Edmonton. I know this, cause i worked there when I was living the dream of taking a break before college. There are still lots of panels left, but no more floors left. They are a very nice panel with variations for gas and diesel fuel doors.
