    No manufacturer name on the parts. I guess they were really proud of them.

    Wow they suck for sure! Unless Sherman sells a full one piece for a Sedan that's all that's out there though. I looked on their site and couldn't find anything. They must be getting complaints as Restoworld had this on their siteyb.jpg My only thought is to save money they only built a stamping die for the front section and use the rear section from a hardtop and splice it in ?

    Bluegrass, I'm afraid you might be right. Either that or their die size is limited, and that's the only way they can make them. But they do make 55 full sedan quarters, so imo that's unlikely.

    I think these guys are nuts or have very poor market research. They cut corners on these quarters that lots of people need, but they spend the money to make full 4-door quarters. Do they really think there's a big market for 4-door quarters? They should have made 2-door WAGON quarters before making the 4-door stuff.

    It's the same crap with 56 repop bumpers. People either seem to want stock-like 3-piece bumpers, or smoothies. But all they make is 3-piece or 1-piece ("California") bumpers. The one-piece ones look just like the 3-piece when the guards are bolted on. WTF are these people thinking?

    I don't think they are thinking. Actually Ecklers and RealDeal don't make that real clear, it's there but in the details at the bottom. If you just look at the picture it's hard to see the splice line.
