The panels that Beevers Auto panels (UK) (http://bap.dominohosting.biz/bap/bapdb01.nsf/$$ViewTemplate%20for%20MakeModel%21OpenForm&RestrictToCategory=FORD%20CORTINA%20%28MK1%2062-66%29) sell are actually manufactured by Hadrian Body Panels in the UK (http://www.carpanels.co.uk/index_catalogues.htm)
You cannot buy direct from Hadrian - hence Beevers being one of their resellers.
These panels are really for the budget restorers , who are not worried about originality. For example the vertical section of the under wing kits (part no: 30-31-284 (http://hadrian.dominohosting.biz/hadrian/hcpdb01.nsf/Plookup2/30-31-284FORDCORTINAMK1%2062-66!EditDocument&Ret=CLASS) and 30-31-285 (http://hadrian.dominohosting.biz/hadrian/hcpdb01.nsf/Plookup2/30-31-285FORDCORTINAMK1%2062-66!EditDocument&Ret=CLASS) ) do not have the fluted pressings in them as found on the originals , and the sills (30-31-005 (http://hadrian.dominohosting.biz/hadrian/hcpdb01.nsf/Plookup2/30-31-005FORDCORTINAMK1%2062-66!EditDocument&Ret=CLASS)) are only cover sills - ie they do not have the top step on them or the closing section on the A post end

here is another option
a bloke who advertises regularly that he will make 'one off' rust sections
'Made to order only'
you give him the rusted section and he will copy it
not sure on pricing but i reckon it would be on a hour basis
maybe worth a try
