    Maybe he asked for Patch panels? I know they had them in one catalog but they never materialized. They should still have full Quarter panels

    Thanks for the ebay listing. I just called them and they gave them to me for 400$ out the door which includes shipping.

    Hopefully you get some good ones, someone else bought some off Ebay and they were all rusty. Cross Canada has them made, they also own Sherman in the US. They are a skin, not the complete 1/4.

    I bought some off the Forum and they must have been stored for a while. Had quite a bit of surface rust. I got them bright and shiny using OSPHO. Wet them down good and let them sit till almost dry. Then wet them again, wire bursh them, and wipe them clean. Came out looking like new with less prep than used ones would require.
