Looks nice. This would be a great thread to keep for reference on quarter and trunk extension replacement.
Who did you say supplied the full quarter and the junk one?
Are you going to use lead filler on the joints? Just curious never worked with the stuff before.

That looks like a really neat job- esp for a 1st time attempt at such a big job. Well done. Can't believe how big the wheel tubs are- it really shows when the quarter is off!

Yeah, the Challenger's and Cuda's can accept some seriously large rear meats before flares or tubbing become necessary!

that rear 1/4 does look like a nice fit not to much trouble by the look of it

Sounded like a lot of tweaking but superb result you got- esp from a chinese panel - shhh, don't tell anyone. How will you fix the rust holes in the rear screen body well area- MIG i suppose?
