Thanks Mark. Looking forward to checking out your car too. Scotty picked me up at the airport and we got a chance to talk over some (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) Arby's....one of my favorite fast-food places which happened to next door to Marriott. He will stop and grab me on his way to the shop in the AM so we can grab coffee and then I can go see my Six. Looking forward to seeing it again.

So here ya go, after 2 years I get to see my car again and check out all of the work Scotty has done. Car is looking real nice. One last hurdle, the passenger side rear quarter needs to go. So we need to find a NOS quarter....anyone have one hanging on a wall collecting dust?

Scotty and I sat down and went over the entire build, front to rear and know what direction we are heading. I hope to have the car back in my garage in August of 2015.

Oh, as you all know Scotty has an aversion to being photographed (duh) and apparently a fondness for monkeys. I still don't get the monkey thing, something about just like little humans or something.Attached Image

So what about the early car Rick is using for his 6. He's pulling the front fenders, how is the rear. Obviously isn't nos but that will be a real long shot. And rick will be able to remove it properly. Just a thought.

Check with peteyd. He had a NOS quarter for sale some time ago. Not sure which one but it's a one in four shot.

OH - and for anyone getting any ideas, Scotty has a most excellent watch doggie, Kudzu who prefers to go by "Zu". This dog is on the job, protecting my car 24/7.

So far we are striking out on the NOS pass. rear quarter. There are at least 2 NOS driver's quarters available but nothing for the passenger side so far. The search continues.....

Its hard to tell theres any damage on that pass quarter from your picture. I trust you and scotty when you say there is, but its just hard to see. Is it dented all over or is it real thin in some spots?

It's hard to get it in picture, but that 1/4 has been beat all over, and there is some major hack work that has been done around the taillight opening. If it were only the external damage I would repair it, but in order to do a proper fix on the light opening the back half would need to come off anyway, so with the that, the front being out of whack, and all of the bangs it makes the most sense to replace.

Absolutely. Believe me the tail light opening is really not pretty. No point in trying to cut and patch that quarter when it is an all around better solution to replace the entire quarter. Now we just need a reply nice clean quarter and Scotty will (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) the old one off and (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) the new one and we will be (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Oh sure... tell that to the poor "Metal Recycling Technician" that (used to) come(s) around the complex there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

That's why Scotty has to wear one of those Hannibal Lecter masks in public now. Court order.
