    Dynacorn?

    Hello all, finally had the time to pull the front end apart of my 69 Mach. It looks like I'm going to need a radiator support, both front aprons, and both shock towers. Has anyone used dynacorn parts? Any other brands? Your 2 cents will be appreciated.

    Dynacorn is very good quality, Goodmark almost as good, Have used both with good results.

    I made enough money to buy Miami, but pissed it away so fast

    I recently ordered and received a Dynacorn cowl induction steel hood for my wife's 68 camaro convertible.  It fit very well.  I would recommend them and plan to get my quarter panels from them for my 65 mustang.

    Dynacorn core support is a nice piece.  Hood is a crap piece.  I have one of each on my car.  The hood will be removed once I get the original Ford hood repainted.  Itt only took me 21 years to find a decent one.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    Re: Dynacorn?

    I have used quite a few reproduction parts and its interesting how it works out.

    I would recommend using Dynacorn for the following.
    -torque boxes(they come with the gussets)
    -Seat risers(they have an extra support underneath the riser)
    -Rear filler panels for fastback(can get them in weld thru primer)
    -Rear seat support

    I howevef  recently bought a pair of dynacorn door skins.  Driveside had different shape on the upper area above the body line.  I was reluctant to try and use it so i cutr off the bottom 4 inches to use as a patch on my orignal door.  Thats a lot of fun butt welding in the lower patch and keeping the gaps right.

    I bought some nice full lenght floor pans from Npd and couldn't get them to fit properly. Bought a taiwan pan from a local supplier and it fit like a champ and allowed me to butt weld both full pans in.

    Re: Dynacorn?

    Thank you all for the replys, MS, glad to hear the rad support fit well, and a tad concerned that the hood was crap, don't think I have 21 years left in me LOL. At some point before I bought the car someone must have tried to close the hood with a stuck hinge as it has a slight bow towards the back. Luckily for me I don't really have any bad rust issues other than the taillight panel, behind the rear wheels, and a small spot on the drivers door. Floor pans and frame rails are all good. Bought the car 35 years ago with some previously repaired front end damage and been in a garage for most of the time since. The biggest job atm is going to be the shock towers, and all the sheet metal in front of em.
