Hello Group,
I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this problem before? Rebuilding the driver's side sail panel and to my horror, the donor intermediate panel doesn't fit! So, question: did the factory change the intermediate panel pressing during the production run? The car is a '72, but the donor panel year is unknown. Please see pics. ![]() under the lower lip. ![]() ![]() It's a complete mystery as all dimensions check out and even a contour gauge reveals no measurable differences! |

I agree, a little working of the panel is necessary. Maybe some trimming, or bending, or coercing with a BFH.
All in the fun of it. |
