Trying to find rockers for 1960 Parisienne


Anyone recommend a parts seller? Also, I have a fellow who is anxious to do the work making the Rockers himself. Can those with experience let me know if its always best to get Rockers if possible or have someone fabricate them? thx

My advice is to check at a good steel fabrication shop if there is one near you. Rocker panels are usually pretty easy to duplicate. Welcome to Canadian Poncho.

There's a set on eBay for US Chevy and Pontiac. I would assume they'd work for a Canadian car. Can anyone confirm?

Original 62 rockers were 3 layer so what you need likely depends on how bad your rockers are.

Hi - Spoke to Those folks and they said they make rockers for the Catalina and Ventura. Just wondering if those would be workable for the Parisienne. I thought I read sometime ago that the Parisienne was compatible with the 60 Impala but not other Pontiacs.
Any insight appreciated.
Id have them made however that has proven to be an exercise in futility.
Thanks Jeff

I'd think full size Chevy would be alike. Experts?

I love '60 Pontiacs by the way... any pictures, Jeff?

Thanks for the photo! Though I've never had one, I always preferred the '60 Pontiac over the Chevy. (The taillights do something for me.)

Since nobody's answering your question, maybe CALL The Old Car Centre in BC. https://www.oldcarcentre.com/

 Different guy, same last name... 

The fella who appeared on Letterman back then, was a local Petro Canada employee named Dick Assman!
