new rear quarter panel
 

were to start am making no progress the gaps are huge , I have set the door square to the rocker ,do I now weld in the rear then start slicing and diceing ?? thanks

What gap is huge? The door to quarter? I'm not very clear on what you are asking based on what you typed.

I always start at the rear and get the quarters fit to the trunk, then to the doors. Then move to the front fenders lining up with the doors and the hood.

If what you are saying is that your door to rocker gap is perfect, but the quarter to door gap is too big. Then see if you can slide the door back more? Or is the door gap uneven to the quarter? Then at that point cutting and splicing is a needed operation.

Post up some pics so folks can see what you have and help you.

Hi thankyou for the replys here are sum shots of the good side

sori they are abit sideways hoefully you can see the gaps

That is quite common. You either have to add material to the quarter or the door.

There are a lot of detailed threads on this over at Camaros.net where guys can really get obsessive about their gaps and panel fit.

made a start am I on the right track? any advice .

I think you are on the right track. Where is the front edge of the door relative to the front edge of the rocker?

^^^^^^^^ What he said. You need to make sure you fenders are going to fit right. You may have already look at it, but I'd hate for you to go to all of the work that you are and find out that the door just needed to be adjusted back.

front door edge is lined up with the rocker edge , the whole car seems way out any ideas on the lower door edge , the hinges have no more play, I have sloted them to get the doors were they are now.
