65 Dart Quarter Panels and Trunk Drop Sheetmetal

[mtpierson]

Any ideas of a good source for new/replacement Trunk Drop sheetmetal for inside the rear quarter panels on a 1965 Dart GT convertible? I've found a seller for the quarter panes but no source for the tank drop sheetmetal. Thanks.

I got my trunk extensions from a 66 Donor car. They had some deep pitting in the bottom front corner which I replaced with new metal, but they were better than mine.

There a few suppliers that stock the lower 1/4 patches and the wheel arches as well as floor pans. You can also contact Rick @ Laysons on this site. I will post more links as I find them. No one makes the trunk extensions. tmm

I bought a full rust-free 1/4 panel with wheelwell and trunk extensions for $425 from Desert Valley Auto in Arizona.They might sell parts from a wrecked 65 Dart.

Here's another place although I've never heard of them. The 67 and newer extensions may be similar shape and size although I don't know that for sure. Most people just make their own. Unless you would crawl under the car and look at them they can't be seen. tmm

That was a real clean and straight 1/4 you got Scott.

I bought a floor from a Dart 65 for my hardtop from Desert Valley. They asked me how much of the floor I needed and they delivered exactly what I asked for. They are great to deal with.
