Pci_Raid - what body panels from Ames are you referring to and when did you purchase them? I have a 69 conv quarter panel skin and outer wheelhouse from them waiting for installation. They are from Goodmark - Ames doesn't make them. What's the problem? I think Ames is the best IMO - they are honest up front about the quality of the part. The stainless trim, door handles, emblems, and mirrors, etc I just got look real nice. And since I live "close" I always get the part the next day or so.
