searching for BJ74 body panels

[bigtreads]

Im looking for everything down the left side of a BJ74. Unfortunately my son was run off the road and my left hand converted 74 was laid on it's side. ICBC wouldn't fix it so I'm now on the hook to get the poor thing back in action. Thanks Norm

Contact Sheldon at G&S Cruiser parts or Steve at EBI in Coquitlam.

As far as I know, there were never any aftermarket 70 panels made.

Bummer to hear about the accident; hope everyone is OK.

@gofast (John) is in your area, he used to own a BJ74 and might know of a more local source.

Cheers,
Rob

no injuries - just dented pride. I have been looking for some time now and have basically struck out. Steve at EBI has a lower front fender for me but that's it so far

I would get in touch with Mike McT from the club. I think he still has one that he is parting out.

 

[bigtreads]

would you have a way to get a hold of him ?

 

[AJAEbj42]

We have our club meeting this Thursday and I'll ask him. He's not on MUD (as far as I know!), so post up your contact info and I'll pass it on.

I don't think he would want us to post his e-mail on here, so I'd rather not.

Cheers,
Rob

All your used stuff will be rusted - especially the rear half panels - the rockers will be all shot unless Rob has done his magic as he did on mine before it went to CA.
For some comic relief you could contact Cruiser Additions to see about new - if you do -post the prices.

Ya for the rear panel I was hoping to find something new. There is a guy in Ontario that custom makes the panel but stops short of the tail light and rear corner - mine is squashed there - so a good start, not ideal but better than rusty junk. I sent an email to Mike McT so fingers crossed

I have aftermarket rear quarter panels for the 70 series and can get oem 73/74 rear panels.

The aftermarket are reasonably priced but the oem are quite expensive and I need to bring them from Europe.

[bigtreads]

are the aftermarket panels just as good ? How long is the wait time ?

 

[joekatana]

I believe these particular aftermarket ones are as good as oem.

Waiting time for the oem depends on availability and when my next container sails out.I should have a container leaving in November and one at the end of December.
