Factory fastback, some ass hacked the quarter panels, so i figure might as well replace everything in the rear. [ 2021-06-29, 02:38 PM: Message edited by: 68dustin ]

Where did you order your sheet metal from? I've got quarters to do in my 66. I got a new battery tray from CJ's and the fitment is trash. Thinking NPD for the quarter skins and outer wheel house. [ 2021-06-28, 10:27 PM: Message edited by: 93ReefBlue5.0 ]

[QUOTE]Originally posted by SLOWBACK 67: [qb] Are you going to mini tub it? Since you're already that far into it? Already on it, not a huge mini tub, but i can fit a 275 comfortable. Just finished the panels and this is my next project, then it's sub frame connectors. [ 2021-09-15, 08:49 AM: Message edited by: 68dustin ]
