Hey guys,
Next on my list for body work that I've been putting off. Tail section. I'm having a hard time finding any threads on the subject. I remember reading one with a red car. Lots of sandwich and layered pieces. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.imgur.com-23209-1594910923.1.jpg) Has anyone tackled this, any tips/photos? Cheers |

I removed and re-installed the rear panel (which was not the original).
One challenge is the seams with the fenders. These are actually triple layer, with the flanges on the rear panel sandwiched between the inner and outer fender edges. |

Edit: Nevermind, found on page 3 and 28. Helpful photos to get a better idea of what i'm dealing with. |
