[Garage Dog 65]

Retro-Tech here in Indy purchased a coupe body last fall. Right at delivery we noticed the right tail light opening to quarter panel edge was 3/4 wider then the left side. When we mini-tubed it we found that the frame rail was 1/4 off - which pushed the trunk pan 1/4 inch - which pushed the tail panel another 1/4 inch - until the quarter was way off. We tore the tail panel out and found they had un-bent the original quarter panel flange - bent it right at the very edge so it would reach the tail light panel again and welded it up. We also found no primer in the area(s) between the tail panel and the trunk and fender extensions/closeouts/lock mount - the areas were already pretty rusted from shipping from R.O.C. That's as far as it's gotten for now - not to the point of other panel or component fit up.
