Location: Iowa | I really needed to replace the bottom of the drivers side wheel well and lower quarter panel on my 1957 Plymouth Belvedere 4 door sedan. I looked high and low and couldn't find any replacements. Looking at a friends 57 DeSoto it looked to me that the rear wheel opening was nearly identical between the Plymouth and DeSoto. I decided to buy the C2C quarter panel for the 1957 Chrysler and DeSoto 2 door coupe. It cost $125 including shipping.
I cut off the bottom parts I needed of the back half. I wasted a lot but I couldn't find a way match the curve of the wheel well. It actually lined up fairly well.

Location: So. Cal | I originally thought those panels were completely useless, but I did eventually find a use for them.
