73 charter. Ok this will be easier once I get a pic taken but heres the problem so far in prose. I removed my driver quarter panel (everything planned out for measuring and replacing). Before I go about replacing it I have to replace/rebuild the pieces behind it. There are three key areas need replacing to have attachment points for the new quarter. Front to back 1)rocker section from wheel well to door endge. 2)Outer wheel well. 3) Trunk extension.

My questions are this. Can I get these as preformed parts anywhere and what are the names of those pieces.

available pieces are named just like you named... AMD makes them, but better find them from some vendor. Here are couple of them.

Thank you sir!
So far I've found only the wheel wells and only for 71/72. I'll keep at it.

I think they are the same... not sure though. If not, they should be easy to make to fit :shruggy:

Very cool...I found and ordered everything but the rocker panel. Apparently AMD has not gotten around to making it yet?

Its a mess. Any suggestions on where to start? I figure having the new wheel well is gonna help to show the rear attachment points but other then that Im still scratchin my head

There was a thread of a red 73SE owner where he show pics of that area allong more of the rebuilt job with teh car being PERFECTLY PATCHED EVERYWHERE, it was an amazing job!!!. I saved the pics I needed but couldn't find the thread anymore.

here are some pics I have grabbing around of that area, thinking on home made this panel. Part of the shape is due the drain areas, what usually get clogged and then causes that rust. The second pic ilustrattes that and was taken from the thread I mentioned.

Last pic shows WHERE are the drains once the outer skin is placed

all this pics were request made by me to the guys making the quarter panel job, thats the reason why the labels
