On the driver side iner fender where it bolts to outer fender lip every hole was about a 1/2 inch.On the pass side the holes for the iner fender braces dont line at all.

Scott, thats why I ALWAYS use org GM inner fenders, I have never had an aftermarket fit. You pay more if you don't have them but it's worth it.

The iners that were on the camaro were so rusted,and all the other I was finding weren't much better.So I poped for some repops.I only took about 3 hours to make them line up.My time isn't worth much.That what customers tell all the time.

But they are on and line up now.Maybe the next car I will try pound out some from scratch.

Rick/Scott - just so you know, on my 69 I used AMDs and they fit like a glove. Prob the only repop parts that did on my car!

Welcome Scott! Just to clarify, I was referring only to the inner fenders, although I also installed an AMD lower valence which was just as good...

After seing the fit that Dan Holahan got for Jay Hillard on his 69 I thought I would give AMD a try.

I need all the help I can get.
