A you talking about just in front of the door hinges? what would be behind the kick panels? I can get some pics os it tonight, I have one side removed the other still in place so you should be able to see everything you need.

here ya go man

thanks racedodge , in your second pic . does the lower lip of the wheel opening FLARE out or is it in the same plane as the rocker ?
so if you stright edge the bottom of the rocker to the wheel opening every thing is in the same line ?
i have notheig to judge this by because i dont know id my driverside is correct ??? it has a flare at the lip of the wheel opening .

thankx RANDY

 

[racedodge]

i honestly cant tell you! lol I had to replace both sides and just went with what I did out of.... guessing I guess.

 

[alleyoopmgv]

Maybe these can help you out a little?

That is a hell of a busy area! You have the wheel-lip contour that dis-appears into nothing! Tough thing to copy.

 

[rav440]

here is what i need to know if the wheel opening lip is flared or is it in the same plane as the rocker .

thankx , what i really need and would appreciate is a photo paralle to the rocker and a downward and upward photo paralle to the 1/4 at the point of the bottom of the wheel opening 1/4 and rocker .

all the other photos are good but i just need a close up please .

thank you RANDY

By the time it gets to the bottom, the quarter is essentially flat.

Its dark out, so I am having a hard time getting good pics, my garage lighting isn't too great.

 

[rav440]

donmodro :blob1: thank you very much thats a BIG help .

 

[donmodro]

Glad I can help. Let me know if you need better pics. I remember seeing your car years ago in Beaver, good luck with your project!

I'm pretty deep into the driver's side of my own car right now, how my passenger side can be relatively clean but the driver's side so rotten I will never understand, haha.

I'm going to get the wheel lip correct, even if it takes me all summer. If AMD starts reproducing lower quarters I'm going to shed tears of joy.

 

[rav440]

is your runner the black with white stripes 4spd car ?

dont hold your breath for amd . why they arnt pursuing repo skins for the 71-74s is beyond me they would make a mint .

 

[donmodro]

That would be the one. I'm definitely looking forward to getting it back on the road.

i thought you had in paint back then ?

 

[donmodro]

I did, but the bodywork was done when I was younger, so there were definitely some areas that could have been done better. Then an encounter with some local wildlife finally gave me the motivation to fix it right.

The deer slightly damaged a front fender, but then it whipped around and hit the rear quarter. Thankfully amd started popping some panels.
