    Hi Rich, I can really relate to your pictures. I had the same problem with the quarters I put on my 70 Cuda. One side was fine and the other side I had to make work buy welding on extra metal and then drilling out the holes. Looks like you got it figured out so it will be fine when your done. Keep us posted on your progress.

    I hope I don't fall into the same problem when it comes to my valance panel, but it looks like you have it figured out.  The work is looking good. :cheers:

    Rusty,

    Looks like your skin had the flange for the valance mounting point already formed? My skin doesn't. I'll probably have to hand make the flange mounting piece and mount that to the quarter skin.

    Anyone have pics of the lower quarters where the valance bolts up? I need more pics without the valance on.

    Thanks Rusty!
