I finished up the 67 454 Camaro and pretty much shut down the shop. I am trying to get mine ready for media blast and put it in epoxy so if I have to move it will be safe for awhile. Just needs a few little things dissasembled.
Put new quartrs,outer wheel houses,trunk extensions, and frame rail repair sections. Also front inner fenders. The quarters fit very good including the rear valance which is original not repo. The trunck extensions were better than starting with a flat piece of metal but thats about it. Even had a few issues with the outer wheel houses. The front inner fenders are also great. Ive ground down some of the welds on the frame rail sections and before long you wont be able to tell they were done.
Does someone have a good pic of the body line around the rear glass. see pic? when done it will be triple black with 340. Matching nbrs car.

The progress looks great, Reflections7!!! I'll try to help you out with a couple pics I found on my computer here at school. Hopefully these will help you out with the question you had. I believe this was the area you were emphasizing...

Moving right along
,looks good,I think the line stops just short of were the roof and quarter meet . cant help with a pic its real hard to see on the car,how did the lip going into the door jam fit?
Are you going with a narrow or wide seam top, I think the wide seam runs right over the top of that line coming down from the roof,just a thought

I think you're referring to something like this?

Reflections7, if this helps you out any, my car came with a vinyl top and the factory had this area filled with lead and smoothed down to be completely flush. I did not alter that area at all, so my picture of my car when it was bare is how it should look.
