Good stuff - you're almost done with all the dirty work.  It's a lot of fun putting all nice clean stuff back on.

Small piece of advice:
Get a new roller set for those rear window regulators and take em out and clean em up while the quarters are off.  It's WAAAAY Easier.
good luck

Quik question, what rollers are you talking about?

69charger440

Where can I get those rollers at?? Well we mocked up the quarter panel and inner housing today. It fits like a glove!! Very nice panels!!! Cant weld them up waiting on the outer housing for the passenger side! But I do need a measurement for the quarter panels.....

Does anyone have the measurement from the inner wheel wheel housing to the edge of the outside lip of the quarter panel??

We need it because the charger was hit in the quarter panel and outer housing area! We want to make sure both side match up to factory specs!!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!! :2thumbs:

I am digging those slotted mags, but it looks like the wider ones are on the front. Good luck! It's coming along nicely, can't wait to see it finished.

Well that is good to hear about the disc brakes setup, I also am digging the mags also but it's a shame the car will be fitted with Chippy rim stuff though but hey it's your car though. BUt me personally, I would have went with rims that made the car look more cooler and like a car.
