Magnum are releasing new panels regularly.
What I find interesting they are not always ones that you would think are in high demand..like full floors.
A full floor is very hard to fit as a repair panel but you would need one for a whole shell. I've never know anyone looking for the rear seat brace (fits to the floor) but you can buy them now from Magnum.
Must be heading towards panels for a whole shell?

who would pay big bucks for an old one when you can build a brand new one from a rotten shitter
It didnt kill the price of Mustangs or E types etc, a new Mustang shell at $12000 still made restoring one a cheaper option for the enthusiast.
As a side effect of new shells it means all of the panels are available.
Rotten donor cars will still be needed for parts .....and V5's

The quicker Escorts get back to "normal" prices the better
Once an Escort was seen as a cash cow the scene was forked
Cheque book rebuilds - exhorbitant parts prices - owners scared to use their car
