Anyone ever get steel body Panels from LMC truck? I have about half a truck to buy and shipping is going to kill me. but LMC is 70 miles away and I could make a road trip to save money. Opinions anyone?

Do a side job while your waiting on the parts to be shipped.

Pat I think he wants to avoid the shipping charge altogether.

Ain't never used them, but I'd be real tempted to buy anything I could drive to and pick up!!! Heck, nobody's is gonna fit that good!!!!;D

If your going to pick them up, why can't you inspect them on the spot and see what you think? If they aren't good, just return them right then and there....

As for the side job ideas, I know you've brought up Subway a bunch in the past?

Swing by for a visit.. I am in Olathe. What parts are you looking to buy. I think thier hoods all come with the holes for the fold down windshield bracket. As for the other parts I think they are as good as anyone elses.

The subway thing is kind of an on going joke. You had to be there kind of thing.
The panels I could inspect as I picked them up but it is hard to tell how the fit will be from the sales counter. This is why I was asking if anyone had any luck with their panels.

Have not used LMC for.body panels but did stop in the National Parts Depot in Ocala and picked up a few items. Right front fender was $50 and the (scratch and dent item) and the left rear quarter panel was about the same.

I've never bought any EB parts from them, but can tell you that there customer service sucks. A buddy of mine at work bought a front bumper filler panel for his 2001 Chevy 1500 and it fit like s@#t. He wanted to return it and after about 18 phone calls and 8 weeks THEY made the decision that it wouldn't be returnable. I have seen some crappy aftermarket parts in the past, but this was in the top five. You could fit your two front fingers inbetween the gap on the pass. side.

If you drive there I'd get something in writing saying you could return the parts if fitment was terrible. Like you said, seeing the parts is one thing. I don't think you would want to bring your mig welder op to the LMC parking lot and start zapping on body panels to save you an exta trip back.
