Hi all just asking a question on where I can get a panel folded for an FC Panel Van it is the skinny panel under the tailgate and between the spare wheel gate I have been to quite a few places and they say it is too difficult to make because of all the different folds in it. I am located near Dandenong Vic.Please help.

Graham,
I'm sure I saw your van at the Bundaberg Holden show the other day. It was definately my pick of the bunch! Looked great!

Yes, I was there and a few other members of our club also made the trip. We had a great weekend and there were lots of very good cars on display. The Bundy club put on a very well run show.
