Mike,
I just replaced the driver's side quarter as well, and it almost fit perfect right out of the box. The door gaps are amazing. The body man had about 2-3 hours of work on the door jamb and lower rear valence combined. I ordered a Golden Legion panel from Brian at CPU car parts. $299 plus $95 shipping. This is the same panel that Goodmark sells for a lot less. By far the cheapest I found.

Will give a more detailed review after Monday.. that's when we're welding it on :)

So far so good though.

Looks good. Where did you buy it from? Direct from Fuel Safe?

Thanks Steve, Looking forward to the review. You could really help me decide between buying some repops or trying to fix the OEM quarters.

Both.. the track will mostly be auto-x and Open-track days at places like Buttonwillow.. no fender to fender stuff, I can't afford to keep building it.. lol

Oh and drag racing on an alternate set of rollers :D

Killer gas tank, how much do they run? Although it is a really nice tank, its also nice to know the stock one can take some good abuse after that major rearend!

Actually I had a custom stainless tank in the car. It dented in but didn't breech which shows the quality of the tank's from Rick's Stainless tanks.

This tank was right aroud $1800 complete.. that includes the pump, sender and all the widgets.
