After the quarter panel and rear trunk repairs the shop is going to install the steel flares. I'd like to give them a set of rockers for them to match up to.

I have a set of the ABS raised letter plastic variety as well as the standard fiberglass stock looking ones.

Which rockers fit best with the AA repro flares?

Kieth - I owe the body shop a visit. I havn't been over there for 2 weeks - but they had started cutting the passenger front to fix the crunch (by welding in the replacement you brought to Movietime - oddly enough). Here's a pic from 2 weeks ago:

I've been so busy getting the orange & black cars sorted out that I havn't minded that it's taking the shop a long time. Plus, I told the guy that there wasn't a rush on it - it could take til July for all I cared. The same shop will prob end up painting it so I won't have it back for some time...

I had planned to strip the orange car and swap most of the parts over to the Green Machine but my pops convinced me to properly sort the orange car's carriage out. And, since he's been doing all the welding I've got no real complaints... Should finish it up sometime this week then prep it for a fresh paint job. The pic below was taken yesterday and is waaaay frightening but we've got the doors lined up great now and the chassis will end up super strong:

Mark - thanks for the pics/info on your flares/rockers. Very useful.
