Quality body panels

Hey there I'm new to the forum and wanted to round up a Model A sedan for a project but was curious who makes the most high quality replacement panels? Thanks in advance for the help.
 
No one makes full replacement panels for the tudor sedans. Just patch panels for the lowers and those vary in quality per who makes them. Rod
 
Probably most of the panels are made by the same guy in Texas. His quality varies - some are very good and some are not so good but his customer service is poor. I think the best advice you can get is to buy from a "stocking dealer" (Macs, Snyders, etc.) and not from the manufacturer.

Howell's has customer service?:D
 
Yes, an answering machine they never listen to, as they don't call back. That is their version of customer service last time I called 5 or 6 years ago. Rod
 
I recently bought patch panels from Mac's, because that was all I needed for my Tudor. I didn't install them, but my body guy did before he painted the car. He said they were a good fit, and the paint job looks good where they were installed.
 
No matter what vender you buy them from, they almost all come from Howells. Quality is so so but it's better than nothing. I've bought a lot from him directly. Some of it takes some work to make right, but it will work.
