I put a ad on UsedPEI for '64 Parisienne or '64 Impala parts/parts car. Someone contacted me and said they have a NOS, in the box, passenger side rear quarter patch panel. I couldn't believe it ... on little ole PEI! My wife and I did a road trip (1 1/2 hour drive), and I bought it. I'm happy!
1980's vintage, and made in Canada! Specifically for a '64 Parisienne ... matches perfect.
The same guy gave me a couple leads on a couple '64 Parisiennes.

PEI is about 224km from tip to tip so a 1.5 hour road trip is very plausible.
Yep, about a 45 min. drive from north shore to south shore, and about a 4 hour drive from tip to tip.
The panel was located "up west", a very poor part of the province, but that doesn't stop these people from having some cool cars. Saw a lot of cool wrecks in people's "yards" along the way. I'm going to see another guy today about a '64 Parisienne "in the woods".

I have the company name, and I'm going to see if they are still around.

PEI is such a nice place..if you put that patch panel on yer car it will get the red dust.......was there before the bridge...hope we never get a bridge!GOOD FIND..this years lookin good!
That is an awesome find! Are you going to use it on your car, or keep it in stock for a rainy day?
Eventually use it. I'm making the car mechanically sound first, and driving it as found.
