US quarter panels on eBay - any use?


I see someone is offering quarters for 69-70 cars, which is actually the first I've seen:

 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pontiac-Bonneville-Catalina-2-4-Door-Quarter-Panel-Right-69-70-1969-1970/370517675627?_trksid=p2045573.c100642.m3226&_trkparms=aid%3D555017%26algo%3DPL.CASSINI%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160706104836%26meid%3D484f9863ab6040b596261bfa106058ee%26pid%3D100642%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26

 

I wonder how close they'd be to the Canadian car?  Mine was all english-wheel hand-fabbed because nothing was available when I had mine restored.

"Economy grade panel made Canada from coated automotive steel for lasting corrosion protection."

Made in Canada? Maybe fits a Canadian Pontiac more than American?

Wonder who stamped these panels out in Canada?

The partial panels are probably made by Cross-Canada which have been traditionally sold through Sherman & Associates out of Michigan. They are just a half-quarter which means you will have to deal with a visible seam inside the trunk. They are better than nothing though.

 

Edit: I just checked at Sherman and they don't show the panels. Nor does Keystone (Cross Canada)

They look like the C2C (Classic 2 Current) sheet metal parts. If you think you can simply weld them on, you are dead wrong. if you think they are even close to the originals, you are even further from wrong. Unless they did a better job on these than they did the 65-66 path panels that is....................
