Ok, so I finally have the quarter officially off. There is nothing left, beside a pile of metal and dust in the floor.

Had a little help on Sunday after the quarter was off. Had to get to the wheelwells. Of course, there was seam sealer on the inside. Taught my son Cam how to use a needle scaler.

The concentration was amazing.

Still need an answer on what to do about the inside of the quarter. What do I need to put on the rusted portion.

Yes, I did get ear protection for him.

Bill, it looks like your doing a great job. How far did you stretch the inner? How much room do you have, from the lip of the outer, to your inner wall at frame? You'll have your quarter back on before you know it.

Hey Scott, I have not taken any measurements just yet. I will get some of those tomorrow. I'm hoping for at least 315's or better. I lost count of how many times I took the wells out an in. I talked to RickD today, and he gave me a lot of insight on some things I need to do. I've got a lot of cleko's to put in and probably a couple of pounds of sheet metal screws to get everything set up before welding it all in.

I guess, I can say I am on the downhill side of this at this point. I'll have to say a little prayer that everything else fits up properly.

Its looking good!

"Yes, I did get ear protection for him."
That's the first thing I noticed. Rushing air is one of the worst offenders for hearing loss. Ask me how I know.

Best help you'll ever have. Nice work.

Scott, I'm measuring 14.5" from the frame to the inner lip of the wheel well. Not sure what that gives me. I'll have to ask the experts or look up some sizes to know for sure.

nice job on the build! remember this is the worst part once you get past this the rest will be a cake walk!:thumbsup: keep chipping away and it will be on the road in no time!

Awesome job, I want to do a mini tub on my 72 Chevelle I'm building as well. Keep up the good work....

Thanks Eric's and Wayne. It is tedious work. Not sure how guys can do this daily. Well, I guess if I did this daily, then I would be good at it. HAHA

Nice job!! Remember, you will have this car apart and back together soo many times fitting and checking your head will spin. But the more you do it the better it will be. Don't over think it. The guys who do it every day have the practice, facility, assistance, and TIME. They get the 8 hours a day, but then a lot of them don't have the time to do their own cars.....
Keep up the good work!!
