does anybody know of any other car that has the same style of lower fenders and quarters.trying to repair wife's volare with major rust issues on lower fenders and rear quarters and not having any luck finding any supplier(s) that carry those parts.all i need to do is patch in the lower panels.what other car can i use that is more available for parts that will work on a 76-77 volare?
 
yeah i was thinking the same thing. i was hoping maybe the duster or valiant might be the same.i only need to repair below the body line.
 
yep,that is exactly what i was thinking i might have to do myself.luckily i have another volare to mold from to get the right curve of the bottom of the fender.i'll just have to take my time.
 
what guage sheet metal should i use,and yes you just said stretchage.:rolling:

Not sure...don't want lead you down the wrong path...:blush:

There are plenty of great guys here that answer that!

Good Luck RRMan...i'l be :popcorn: this thread. You have pics?? We all love all kinds of pics here... :grin:
 
MarPar: Good thing you haven't been posting pictures of "stretchage" on that other thread!:rolling::rolling::rolling:

RRMan: I would say maybe 16 guage or 18 guage sheetmetal. Do you have a set of calipers or micrometers? You could also take a sample along to where you are going to buy your material and check it there. :)
 
I concur with the Aspen. Don't forget the Aspen and Volare wagons are very close and more common.

From memory, maybe a duster/demon might be close enough. I think I saw patch panels for those somewhere.

all the dusters that i have seen the fender goes all the way down in front of the rocker panel whereas the fenders on the volare come down and meet on top of the rocker panel.
