I haven't posted in quite a while but have stopped by from time to time. Anyway, I am looking for a good condition as possible a # A 225736 panel ass'y, Right Hand (pass. side). I don't know if it is called a rocker panel or not. It is the silver panel running from the front fender back to the skirt just below the doors on a long wheel base 4 door car. I took mine off today because it has a rust spot about 8" long and rusty spots going half way to the back door. Thanks, Richie.

If Lance can't help you maybe I can. I picked up 2 rocker panels at an estate sale thinking they were both for a coup and now I think one may be for a 4 door. I would have to get in the shed and take measurements to match yours and make sure its for the side you need but it's in great shape.

Terry, thank you. I have been working on mine and am going to try and save it. If I can't, I'll get back in touch. Thanks again, Richie.

The two I have are for different models. one had a paper tag wired to it and had the model numbers that included "502-504" which is for a Commodore I believe and has rectangular holes in it to accommodate the wide trim? This rocker, I believe, has never been on a car. The other rocker does not have the rectangular trim holes and is used but in great shape. they both measure 90 7/8" plus the 1/4" lip at the back. I'll dig them out and take pictures. To be honest, I have no idea what they fit...2 door or 4 door. Terry

Here they are, no dings, dents etc. You can see the model numbers I copied off the tag that was attached to the brown one. Terry

Terry, in looking closer at your pics, what I have seems different. Where you have the elongated vertical holes I have welded channels to hold the wide stainless trim. I'll try to post a pic. Richie.

I've never seen a Hudson rocker with the rectangular holes either, not that I've seen very many...they're always on cars! There's the remnants of an old shipping label on the back. and an old paper inventory tag wired to it when I got it. It must have laid around someones shop for years. Another first for me is in your picture, the items that are inside the trim retainers....never seen those before. Maybe I need to get out more. Terry

Thanks Terry, I have never had a rocker panel off before, live and learn I guess. I have been working on my panel and I think I can make it good again. Thanks again. Richie.

No problem, I'll hang onto them until someone else is looking for one.
