Changing the trunk floor, Had to remove the rear tail light section so that I could fit in the one piece trunk floor.

Started working on the front end . Changing out the front inner fenders because of bubbling by the hood hinges and one rad support.

Wow! You're not wasting any time on this!  To answer your question, the aftermarket pieces fit reasonably well.  Fortunately, my body man is an expert at both body work and fabrication and by the time he was done it looked better than factory.
1970 Plymouth 'Cuda.  Matching numbers 440 U Code, 4 speed pistol grip, Rallye dash, AM 8 Track, Shaker hood, 15 inch rallye wheels, Dana 60 4.10, Super Track Pak.  One of 134 - 440 "U" coupes codes built in 1970 and one of 100 - 440 Super Track Paks built in 1970.

"usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.
