Just cause you can get it done cheaper doesn't mean better.

both quarters replaced (FULL), full floor pan, trunk pan, both front fenders
(NOS), trunk lid, front valance panel, outer fender wells,

My experince (not with ford) is that the

first bearing to go.

Roger,
Have any friends who know how to weld? You could
probably learn from them. All depends on what you
want- if this car is a driver for you, it doesn't need
to have $3K put into it for welding work- How bad is
the quarter now? Just rust? Mashed? All depends on
what you want.
Don't give
Jim, Thanks for the info. I actually had the front
floor panels put in myself. I cut the old rusty ones
out and had a friend weld them in for nothing. Maybe I
will try to get someone to do it for me. The body
shops I went to also wanted to put in a full quarter
panel, but actually a skin would do
Welcome!

You know Donnie, that sounds like you got a good deal.
I justdon't want to pay $10,000 to put on quarter
panels. I'd GLADLY pay what it has cost you.
Thanks.There's hope out there yet.

That's been my experience as well. However, it doesn't really explain why,
when the belt engages completely (stops slipping) the fan runs nonstop.
The fan clutch should not be engaged at highway speed.

Roger, Don't get discouraged. Be smart about how you go about your resto.
Don't do a full quarter panel if you can avoid it. A full quarter gets into
the roof line, the door jamb, the trunk and the rear panel. If a quarter
skin will work you will find the labor costs will be a fraction of the
sounds like 2 different problems to me- bad fan clutch, worn belt and/or
idler pulley bearing or tensioner pullry bearing.

They are exactly the same except for the pattern stitched into the upholstery.

How much would you pay for a complete pair, with brackets headrests in
good condition (except for a tear in the drivers seat)?

Interesting article on how to choose (or not choose) a body shop. Too
bad they don't know how to spell owner (or bumper for that matter),
but worth a read. Of course if the link wraps you will have to get it
all into your browser...

Cost me $0 to have the quarters installed on the Charger. I guess that's
because I did it myself along with installing new floor pans, trunk pans/drop

My adv dvd will show you how to replace the wheel well
area on your Chevelle.The cost for parts and filler
is about $150.00.Thats if you have some autobody tools.
You can make it a great street ride and have the pride
of doing it yourself.If you want an all out show car,
then take it to the high
