body panel help (Restated)
« on: April 25, 2006, 01:57:46 PM »

hey guys Does anybody know if the body curves on the rear 1/4,s  in front of each ends of the rear bumper on a 68 dart is the same as behind each ends of the front bumper  on the front fenders?  What I am doing as replacing the rear lower 1/4 on my 68 dart, and I need the metal curve at the rear, were the body meets the bumper,  ( 1" gap) I can get a front fender and use the metal curve,  It looks like it will work?  Thanks   Darren

they're similar. you could make it work. it might be easier than making your own, but you could also just buy some lower quarter patches.

That is my problem I bought new lower 1/4's but the panel does not have the flanged curve. I am buying the front fender today, hope it works.   Thanks  Darren

I went to the wrecking yard  today on my lunch, got ready to cut the part off the fender off with my battery powered sawsall, forgot the blades at work, I was so mad I grabed a rear bumper laying on the ground and beat the fender off the car, luckly the fender was half off the car allready. So I took the whole fender. any way I got the piece cut out and it looks like it will work.  Darren
