I'm thinking of buying a tail pan patch panel made by EMS for the coupe I'm restoring. Has anyone used one and how is the fit ? Any problems in installation ?
Thanks,
-Bob

I have done 4 over the years and each was a bit different. Overall I thought the quality was good. I would not hesistate to use another one of their pans.

I did one on my 35. It went okay. Fit was okay. Wasnt amazing or anything just average.

I am very happy with the tail pan I used. The body I had was gone in the back, so I used the tail pan as a point to fabricate to. That being said, I don't know how it would fit an almost complete body.

Is there anyone besides EMS who makes a replacement tail pan for a '35/'36 coupe?

We recently used several patch panels that were made by EMS on a '49 Olds project I am doing.. Their panels did not fit perfectly, of course nobodies does, however, with a little tweaking here and there the repairs went very well..
It is my understanding that most of their panel are made in the States...
