Chief you are doing amazing work,this car will be way better than new,I don't blame you for using your existing window channel because no aftermarket quarter fits right in that area.Keep up the good I mean perfect work your doing,good luck.

I remember putting the quarter on and off my car so many times I lost count. It was never easy to take off and put back on. The sail panel area was the area that would give me fits. I feel for ya right now, but it will soon be behind you.

As for the jamb brace, I can't say I have ever seen what you propose, but I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work that way.

Thank you .... yeah that window channel wasn't even close to GM, I'm glad I was able to save the channel and it will come out better than the repo parts. Just need to get them welded together without too much fuss.

I think it will work just fine .... just ordered a Cleco kit and extra pins from Eastwood to ease the on/off of the quarter panel, unfortunately it should get here the same time as the cold front .... TODAY!!!!!

So the plan to get some more work done this week .... 6-10 inches of SNOW and it's not gonna get above the teens during the day and negative temps at night ..... and maybe 20 degrees by Monday!!!!

That's too cold to try to heat up to 50 Wish I could bring the car into the living room to work on!

Looks like you pushed that cold weather my way. Weather forecast here is showing as low as 9* for the low Monday night. That is unusually low for around here. I feel for you guys that have to endure these extra cold temps during the winter months.
