Quarters and roof
 
Hey guys, I have a 68 that, after further exploration, needs quarters and roof. Probably also tail panel. I have been tossing around the idea of mini-rubbing as well. I AM NOT A BODYMAN! LOL But I think I'm gonna try it. Has anyone else gotten into this as blindly as I am considering? If so, in what order did you do these tasks and any hints or "definitely don't do's"?

If you have the money have some one do it for you:D I have 3 years of metal work in mine and not done yet.
On the other hand if you dont do it your self you will newer know how to and there is allot to learn.

Good luck and have fun:thumbsup:

Why do people just list the year and expect others to know what kind of car we're all talking about?

I'm guessing it's a Camaro.....is there really anything else? Oh, Gregs Nomad....sorry!! :lol:

All kidding aside, he should have mentioned the body type...but my moneys on F-Body.

Plenty of guys on here have done this themselves. Bracing the car is a must. Check out camaros.net forums, it's all been done before. One tip I have is to test assemble *everything* before final welding, including the deck lid, these repop panels don't just fall into place. Clecos clips work great too. Good luck-

Thanks. I'm gonna look into it a Lil more,and yes it is a camaro.

WE ALL ain't talkin about too much anyway with your ONE post in three years but yeah I guess you got me on that ONE!

I am in the same boat as you with my 70 Camaro Rs. I am about to install AMD full quarters, tail light panel, both floorboards, and both rockers as soon as I finish patching some holes in the framerails.

have you done it yet? how was the fit of those panels?

We did a 67 with Goodmark and the fit was good.
