67 Fastback Engine Bay Measurements

Thanks clementine. Did you get 62.25" across both diagonals? Just want to make sure I understand correctly. My restore car had also been tagged in the drivers front fender. Looked to have been hit right at the headlight.
That's what I originally was the cause of my differing measurements but the parts car I have has no signs of such damage. My parts car doesn't have outer fenders on it either.
I will prefit/clamp the new inner fenders in place and take new measurements again.

You wouldn't happen to know anyone with a good driver front fender for a 67 FB? Person might take a 68-69 and just weld up the reflector/signal light holes? Not sure though? I will check the rear Quarter on parts car, I won't need it?

Thanks again

I got 62 and 5/16 on the measurement from drivers side pinch weld to passenger radiator and 62 1/4 on passenger pinch to drivers rad. If your whip got pushed in on the drivers side your drivers pinch to pass rad measurement will be longer if it was not straightened. Putting the car up on stands and using a plum bob to mark the floor at strategic land marks that are known to be the same from pass side to drivers side (end of frame in rear, sub frame ends etc etc) and then make your box measurements to see if the whole car is square could be time well spent. Just a suggestion. I had to do that on a 32 rat rod to get the diff in straight.
