Are you going to cut the holes in the replacement front panel? Am I Michael ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) IMHO It's unnecssary and it just one more spot ( the edges ) for rust to start (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

The front is part of its history, none of the fenders are OG to the car. Or find a 70-71? and change it. I bought one in 1980 and it was the one you have ..I returned it and spent hours fixing my OG one.
Its all gut.. |

No we will not be cutting the holes in that factory panel. I agree with Scotty re just additional spots for leaks, rust, etc. If this were a matching number C&W car then I would consider that. I believe that the right rear fender is original to the car; just saying.......

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) replaced fenders and quarters ? the right front is clearly a replacement with the Porsche ruddy prime..... the others ? I see no evidence in the photos. The front latch panel ? obviously replaced. trunk floor ? from another 6 ? what's the difference ? maybe by the body number in the rear but it sure looks original to me. in the front ? same as a four. no dig to Scotty and I'm certainly not there but please show how this is known. I'm always ready to learn. |

I'm always ready to learn. Did you not notice that the trunk panel is ORANGE ?? Or that I pointed out where it was LAP WELDED IN then brushed seam sealer all over the welds ??? Or the ORANGE paint on the right rear 1/4 panel that I pointed out and took pics of, or the seam welds on BOTH front 1/4's along with the factory primer on BOTH Or the lack of undercoating on 3 out of 4 quarter panels, those being the same panels with NO signs of gold paint ???;:confused: Would you like me to make a post of these specific areas only. |

Doh !!! OK OK already . I saw the factory ruddy prime on the right front fender and the front latch panel. By trunk panel I thought you meant the floor, thus my questions about floors. Now I see the left front fender and the rear quarter. I admit I failed to see those things and as I said I didn't mean it as a dig. I apologize, I spoke without taking enough time to look and ended up half wrong. Rory |
