And yes all the gaps between the quarters and spoiler will be tightened up. Lol

Well I've decided I'm going to Go back with a factory spoiler for now. I think I'm also going to go ahead and tackle raising the trunk floor a little so can use the caprice gas tank I have. The car is still for sale and i've gotten alot of calls and emails but no one has actually came to see the car yet. I'm thinking I might take the car to goodguys ft worth with a price tag on it and if there's no buyers I might see what it does on eBay. I just wanted to offer I on pro touring And lateral g first.

heres a pic with all the trim and mirrors installed.

I've been wanting to come up and take a look at your car. I'm just down the road from you in the Decatur area. If I didn't have a garage full of 67 Camaro, I would jump on it. So tempting.

thanks guys.. so i went ahead and tackled the trunk. i think it turned out great. from the bottom i made a pinch weld on the sides then turned the floor edge up horizontally on the front and rear. that way i have plug welds from the side then an overlap buttweld on the front and rear edges. after i got it all welded up i used some seam sealer then some rubberized under coating. im thinking about going ahead and "finishing" out the truck with some nice carpeted or vinyled panels and carpeted floor. i will post up some pics here in a few..

so i made a cardboard template then cut it out of metal and rolled all the edges. i trimmed the front and rear tabs for a flush fit



then i marked the trunk and brought the mark down 3/4" for a pinchweld on the sides



test fit
