Re: 65 Fairlane pro-touring build

The right rear quarter panel saga continues...

Because the 66-67 wheelhouse pinchweld flange doesn't match up with the 65 inner panel, I had to add a filler piece. The photo below shows the upper section. I fab'd up two other pieces below that will provide as much support as possible. I also formed a curved flange to add support in the same area as the original. These will get panel adhesive and stainless rivets because I can't get in the area once the wheelhouse is in place.
