This is a correct 68 GTS Panel

Are you meaning the lower rocker chrome ?

Yup it's a rare beast thats for sure...

Hey all...I have a question some of you might know the answer to. The 67 Dart WIDE rocker trim is next to impossible to find in good shape. Now i have heard rumours of people using earlier Camaro or Lemans/GTO rocker trim. Quite a while back i had 'quickly' measured a Camaro and i believe it...

Agree... seen it before fender gets damaged stripe need repaint try to rematch that. Easy to swap out a decal stripe on the whole side. But they do look pretty painted under that clear coat. My2c

What are we working on ? Dart - Cuda ......

Either way i think you'll be fine.... Very nice job... well done.

Bravo my friend.... Bravo :cheers: Looks awesome and very nice spacing on the tunnel welds... Looks almost professional. That one side thats a little far off that your concerned about.... if you took a length 2x4 and slid it closest to the bottom curve near the flat of the floor and give it a...

Interesting... I would have thought that any shop in Canada would be automatically ordering from the US. They should be able to tell you the quality difference. And if you're doing the install yourself...Apparently its quite the chore so anything that makes the install easier quality wise is...

A lot of times we start to see the finished product early and start to create short cuts.... and just wanna drive it. Overcome the urge do it right you'll reap the benefits later on. Someone told me this once and i never forgot it....... "Why is there never enough time to do it right.... BUT...

This is not a bad suggestion..... seeing as you need to do it anyway and remember your not in a rush "RIGHT".. ! You'll be 100% sure you pan is true and be guaranteed the doors will close properly after the welding.

Here i found this..... Have a look through here you might find a few ideas.... http://www.moparmusclemagazine.com/techarticles/mopp_0705_floorplan_replacement/photo_01.html

You gotta go through the windows tho as to not dent the roof tin... I'm sure you realize that tho ....

Good luck.... keep us posted... we love pics. If the headliner area is unfinished... slide a 4x4 post across and completely out the side window area and a short one vertical screwed together of course then slide a bottle jack under and use LIGHT pressure to help push it down. You'll need some...

Agree ....i would work Center outward too

Are their any holes that you might be able to draw it in slowly with a bolt and a large washer as not to pull through the pan...

This might sound foolish but... You had stated you can push it down on the top of the hump... BUT have you tried pushing down on both of the bottom edges of the hump area almost near the torsion area but closer to the hump that might draw the the top of your hump down as well. Pushing the top of...

I would definitely be bolting that crossmember back in ... see if that helps some. But even if it stays the same leave it in when you're welding that floor pan in. Also check all your door gaps you might need to backup a few steps and re brace before you weld it in if AMD is correct on the...

I vote gas as well...much cleaner weld and less smoke. Test it on an old hood or fender each welders settings are different you'll have to find that sweet spot.The sound will tell a lot as well nice smooth crackle should be heard. Lots of instructional videos on Youtube check a few out.Most...

Ok i had a real close look at 2 lights and the body panel cavity where the actual bucket goes in. There are a few issues making these fit.. lets see if i can explain the issues and may jog you memory a lil more RMAZESS. 1. The distance from the surface where the 68 BEZEL mounts to the bucket...

Gotcha...In these parts if its equipped it must work so in my case ill have to use all 4 until i do a bumper swap. Lets see...... 2 feet of wire or a $200 ticket. GET THE WIRE!

Well i might give that a shot.... luckily enough i happen to have a spare slightly damaged housing to practice on. Thanks again all i appreciate all the suggestions if i geter done ill post a pic of the finished product. I really don't want to butcher the body panels so the the tail light...

Gotta love them Mrs... Sometime they are our extra brain sometimes our extra pair of hands. Might I asked what you used to cut the housings and how you reattached them ? Or wait.... Maybe I should talk to the Mrs.... Haha just kiddin :P

I see you kept the 67 rear bumper.... Do you have both sets of reverse lights hooked up ?

That sounds like a great idea.... i mulled that over but really couldn't think of a way to reattach the two halves. Next question is what did you do to reattach the two halves. I'm assuming you either used a chop saw or hack saw to cut the 2" off ? BTW thanks for the info... GREATLY APPRECIATE IT

Any chance you could snap a couple of pics of the inside that might help some. No need to take them out i wouldn't ask anyone to do that. I was just hoping that someone might be in the process of doing one at this time and might be able to shed some light on the subject and a few pics...

I know their not a direct bolt on thats why i asked about the "surgery" and if anyone had pics of it.

Haha too funny... sorry corrected

Whats involved... is this major surgery or a pretty simple retro? Before and after pics would be nice...

Good info thx.... Its not really hiding anything it still has the usual holes needing repairs IE rear quarters and such, but the primed areas are were some striping was sanded off and of course they carried on a little further just to make it look better haha .. Its quite plain to see no filler...
