B-Pillar Reproduction Panels

[TRAIL TAILOR]

Most of us have the dreaded B-Pillar cracking, broken or missing issue. The 27+ year plastic has served its time and good ones are few and far between and almost non-existent. I currently have these at my laser cutter and want to see how many are interested in this possibility. They will be made from 20ga stainless steel, cnc bent and of course laser cut.

I will know a price in about a week-10 days on these. I'll post the price and lead time as soon as I know.

Who is interested... If I can get a good enough price I'd like to get orders in advance to get these in the shops queue.

Let me know guys,

Jason

Stan, if I can negotiate a deal soon, they should be ready in about 3-4 weeks.

Do any such examples even exist?!

Jason, you are the man, Thank You. You may have noticed, I am a 60/62 fan. Like everyone else I worry about finding parts. Your interest in and action on procuring replacement parts is just what this little niche in the Land Cruiser world needs.

Put me down for two sets of whatever. . .is stainless going to be an option? Either way, 2 sets, pls, sir. =)

Yes my son... I have seen them myself in the wild.
Just attached to someone else's 60!

Yes indeed, I had a set that were a 9 out of 10 on Old Blue and Marley. Poppy's PS pillar is in perfect condition, but the DS is missing about 40% of the top..

Stan, you are welcome. If I can bring pieces back in a quality offering, I will.

Don asked about a ballpark price early this evening and I honestly don't know.

However, I need some feedback here on what you guys are willing to pay. I know the lower the better, but be reasonable with your responses. These will be a permanent replacement compared to the old plastic ones.

Give me a range if you will.

Are they going to be made to look just like the factory pieces, form wise, or more simplistic?

 

[87CRUSR]

Although mine are good for the time being it's a matter of time before the cracking begins. Definite intetest. Price point... $75 each?

They will be pretty simple. The raised center will be deleted to be a full flat face.

R, Thanks for the $ input.
