I've been meaning to ask. If one were just looking for the metal around the
rear wheel well opening to repair rust damage would the wheel well opening
metal from a four door work? The metal at the front of the opening would be
limited due to the proximity of the door but otherwise is the opening size
and contour the same? The opening on a G I'm working on was stabilized by a
previous owner's good work with some fiberglass. But if I ran across a good
panel from a four door is it useable for that section? Would openings from
other Chrysler cars of that year (Windsor, Newport, etc.) be the same? If so
given the somewhat modest body restyling for '62 would those four doors have
the same rear openings as the '61's ? A lot to ask but I imagine someone has
previously looked into this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all, ,

We need a 60 Chrysler passenger side quarter panel from convert (right) or
coupe ; restoring a real terra cotta F, had been hit, we found half xxx 4
door quarter panel had been grafted on 30 years ago + , does not fit right,
they made new fender lip of solid bondo ( not rusted there!) . As result of
poor body work, trunk lid fit awful. Wheel well rippled/crushed, left like
that.

I have a hope someone paring down the pile (me too!) has a clip or a pass
side panel hanging on a wall..with a wheel well..??

Obviously, tried the usual suspects , no luck.

Any help greatly appreciated,

John
