rockers and inner sills

[Superwrench]

I'm replacing the rockers and inner sills on my 62 Healey 3000. Should I use the Kilmartin brand or are Moss items good enough. thanks

I have used them both. It depends on what part you need . Different companies often buy from the same vendors. Aftermarket parts are a battle anyway you look at it. I have yet to find one company I am 50 percent happy with the fit.
I am restoring a KarmanGhia for a guy now and the rockers came from the House of Ghia and the fit of the parts is sad at best, last week I called it my headache maker > I had to slice parts down the middle and make my own custom part from their sent parts. My customers expect these cars to fit and function like factory cars. My radar is out looking for good parts that "fit" . I think a better way to ask your question is to ask people who makes the best fitting rocker panel or floor pan or etc. This way you get the real idea of what you would like to find instead of one company that will not have all of the best fitting parts for every application.

I can recommend the Kilmartin brand. I've seen them used, they are very well made.
As far as I know made here in Australia.

When I get to the body I'll be getting all the panels I need from Kilmartin.

That's great your happy with the product. As I said Ive not personally bought any of their stuff yet but feedback I hear from guys useing their stuff is that it's very good. The panels I've seen before a fit seemed to me to be pretty good.

Kilmartins are slowly adding to their stock of TR stuff which is good. Just wish I had the money to order up big from them right now.
