Where can I order lower rear quarter panels?

I need to get some rust fixed. It's almost all the way through. I need to keep the water out. So, if anyone has any tips on a location that sells these panels pre-formed, I would like it alot. Thnaks guys.

you can order the quarter from GM.. kinda expensive. and just section it out. but i am not sure if they make the rear quarters for sections..
i know we have a drivers side at work, its everything but the pillar.. so its from pillar back.. but i know it didnt come that way..
i would wonder if they would sell that.. i will ask at work tomorrow..
oh yeah its a body shop so you know.

Well, I found this place. It is probly the closest I will come. But I don't know if you can designate driver or passenger side. they look different, but I'm not too picky when it comes to the rust being gone. As long as it will be gone.

Well, I checked out the classicindustries.com stuff. They list the whole panel for nearly $500. I found it at another place for about $100. They also had the bottom 5 inches which is what I need. But thanks for the info though. I did find some other cool stuff in there, so it wasn't a complete waste of 2 hours going through the whole catalog. Hehe. Anyway, do you guys know where I can get some hood insulation that is not pre-cut? We need some for the Vette, but can't find any at the parts stores.

Also Looking

My 88 formula was hit on the passenger rear quarter panel, below the body line, and I was also looking for a patch kit, or replacement of some sort, hopefully not the whole thing. Was wondering where you found that five inches or so?

Also, if that doesn't work out, how do reproduction quarter's look when finished? I'm just wondering from anyone who has actually used one, cause I know reproduction isn't supposed to be that good, but if you did, and it looked good with one, tell me! Thanks.

Just trying to get my baby back to looking good.
