Hey guys I just installed new trunk extensions and new lower 1/4 panels on my 68 Dart, what was used to hold the two parts together, I can pull the two parts away from each other pretty easy, there must of been some kind of body sealer on the lower lip? Thanks Darren

You need to drill some holes in the bottom edge of the quarter and "plug" weld them together. A plug weld is a circular motion you do with the mig gun. Its a mig weld version of a factory spot weld.

They were lower rear 1/4,s from cross Canada they worked all right, but the trunk extensions needed lots of modifying. Thanks Darren

Any of you boys ever use any of that body panel glue? It's two part and tough.

Ya i have used 3M , Fusor, Duramix and Proform for panel adhesive ( body glue) , if ya go that route it has to go on bare metal only, no paint or on rust. Make sure you cover all bare metal with it so the panel wont rust. And don't try to use it for anything structural.
