Canadian part suppliers

[Northernchallenger]

Reaching out to anyone on this forum to see where they get body parts in Canada, looking for body panels, firewall especially.

Canada is a pretty big place, whereabouts are you?

In Ontario, National Moparts is the largest supplier of AMD panels.

In B.C. my friend Ken Habermann deals in AMD, he's down in Cranbrook.

In Ontario, not really worried about where in Canada to get parts, just really expensive for shipping from across the border

Thanks people, will try all these suppliers, tried cross Canada auto parts and they are on back order.

You don't want Cross Canada sheet metal...you want AMD

That's what I have been reading on the forum, that much of a difference I guess?

It's not terrible, they are hooked to DII (Dynacorn) .

If you have never done a lot of metal replacement in the past, then you probably wouldn't know any different, you would just consider the inaccuracies as typical reproduction parts. If like me, you've done more rust bucket restorations on E Bodies then any body else,   then you'll appreciate the quality of the AMD parts. For the most part, AMD parts cost more.

Actually that is not necessarily true Alan.

In the past couple years "some" of the Cross Canada / Goodmark / Keystone sheet metal has improved and is much nicer than the AMD offerings I bought and is less money.

E body inner fenders are much more crisp and look like OEM.

The trunk extensions and trunk floor are waaaay more accurate and don't have the chevy style rounded end strengthening ribs.
The trunk floor lip that spot welds to the tail panel unfortunately was a little short,  but not a big deal to extend it slightly and have a trunk floor that looks closer to original.

The trunk floor / fuel tank supports actually fit the original and their repo trunk floor well , can't say that for the AMD's I bought.

The upper firewall was very good also,  although I didn't compare it to an AMD and just used it to patch my original.

I bought both brands for my last E body project and compared them thoroughly to the OEM parts they were replacing , and returned or gave away some of the AMD pieces.
