Thanks Zeke, I did a little seaching myself and discovered Early Ford V8 Sales will also bring any EMS panel to Hershey there prices are better on some of the panels. Plus they don't charge NYS sales tax like MACS.

Yep, their prices are better but their (EMS) quality is most often poor.

Kube, are you saying EMS supplies E.F. v8 Sales lower quality panels than they do Macs? I put an order into E.F. using EMS part # with no mention of "blems" or "seconds".

I have purchased 1939 - 40 panels (EMS) in the past and they all required a lot of work to fit correctly.

I need the rear floor trunk section and spare tire well. EMS carries both of these. I've done my share of "tin knocking" and always look forward to a challenge. Thanks for all the input.

Thank you, EMS customer service. Another reason to deal with companys from this country...

I recently had to replace the floor pan, cross bracing, rocker panels and rear fender wheel opening on my '49 Olds 88... I selected EMS for these parts because they have a huge selection of GM body parts..
My research had shown that "reputedly" the Chevy and Olds bodies were the same.. In some respects they are, however, because the Olds was a much heavier car with a V8 and AT trans, the floor pans/cross bracing are completely different.
The replacement sheet metal I received from EMS was first class quality heavy gauge steel. It took a little work to modify everything to fit my Olds, we got the job done.
Rather than go through a middle man, just order the parts needed directly from EMS, their customer service people are very easy to work with and their shipping is very quick...
