67/68/69 cuda dilemma
Although great to have compared to nothing, these AMD outer wheel houses bothered me because they were stamped too long in the back, and not enough overlap in the front. I fixed the front before I installed them, and I finally figured out how I was going to correct this issue at the rear. I plan on temp hanging the quarter skin with cleco pins to figure out the height of the trunk drop flange to the outer wheel house before i do a final cut to fit. What's also different is there's extra bracing for the trunk drops at the back attached to the rear cross tie bar that the 69 doesn't have, and didn't have when I took it apart. The 69 donor back half did not have these pieces either. The RH side fits even worse from the trunk drop to the wheelhouse.
