Rear panel on Orion
We can make a version of it from a stock panel and I have, but I felt it just needed more deatail, so I made a one-off panel for Orion. I have looked at stamping the panel, but it has so many mods just on that panel that is would not fit a stock body with out making more mods to it. The inner structure is modified also. The license plate area has been narrowed, the lower quarter panels have modified to accept the recessed step and the trunk pan has been raised 2.5 inches. The panel and the quarters were welded together because the seam did not work with the recessed line.
However, we did build a mold of the front valance and were able to bolt in place with stock bumper mounts. Mostly everything on Orion was hand made, but we are building "production" parts that were first made for the Orion car. Many parts on Orion will remain as one-offs while others have influenced production parts for the future.
