Beat the heck out of the panel.
Got it mostly right. Ish.
Nice to have both quarters on though.

Re: 1966 Plymouth Fury 3
Thought it looked wrong. Went outside with the template to see why- lo and behold in a hurry I used the wrong datum point and measured the panel too short.
I'll slice a section out and extend it down, that'll work.

Re: 1966 Plymouth Fury 3
This afternoon after shopping was a bit cooler than it has been so I cut the repair panel off and beat the arch profile a bit better.
Arch itself was too straight and the lower return came at an angle which was wrong, now has a nice French curve to it.
Ignoring the triangular hole I need to fill in, that looks many times better.
Even looks good in 3/4 view so I'm happy with that.

The kids will be too cool for school running around in that as their first motor.

They may end up just getting driving experience in it; wife wants this one for herself now...DodgeRover wrote: ↑Mon Sep 11, 2023 8:02 pm The kids will be too cool for school running around in that as their first motor.

Re: 1966 Plymouth Fury 3
How about a V8 ute for them to run about in? At least then they won't have 6 of their mates in with themPhilA wrote: ↑Mon Sep 11, 2023 8:54 pmThey may end up just getting driving experience in it; wife wants this one for herself now...DodgeRover wrote: ↑Mon Sep 11, 2023 8:02 pm The kids will be too cool for school running around in that as their first motor.
