Rust free my ass, that 1/4 panel has got some interesting stuff going on its 2in wide where the moulding is
And in the first pic, the 'GS' emblem is a little to high from the 'Stage 1' emblem ... the gap between the two should be less.
I have yet to see any great aftermarket / reproduction sheetmetal. I got supposedly the best brand of fenders, radiator support for my '64 C10 (sold by AMD, but are Tri-Plus brand). I won't use them, I'll live with repairing the originals.
With AMD it seems to be dicey. Some stuff is ok but other stuff I would never use on my car. Maybe all the quality goes to the Chrysler parts because I don't know how Graveyard Cars can almost replace every panel on their cars with AMD parts.
I won't claim to be an expert on this, but I have been told that the stamping process for the Stepchild body panel of the Skylarks/GSs and especially the '70-'72 Skylarks/GSs were particularly complicated. The creases and then tapered "bulges" over the front and rear wheels were difficult processes. As I think of the Mopars of these years, I don't recall very many elaborate and (comparatively) complex fenders and quarter panel body lines of the two-door Mopar taxi cabs.
