My brother, stepdad, and i are replacing the rear quarter panels on my brothers 74 camaro. My uncle is a really good body man, and has been doing it for like 30 years. He came up for a weekend and helped us work on it. What he told us to do is to just cut out the old metal, about one inch smaller than our new replacement quarters. Which he did for us. Then, we fit them up, and screwed them to the body. We are going to use stuff from 3m, called panel bonding adhesive. My uncle says that that is what they always pretty much use now. It is actually stronger than welds. Well, the most important thing is that you have at least 1inch overlap, of clean metal, from the body to the new replacement panel. on the body line, like where the replacement panel ends on the main body, you need to grind it down to like a razor point, so it helps when you have to smooth it out later. Then you just put that panel bonding adhesive on, screw it down, and let it dry. Take out the screws, smooth all the xs goop and what not that came out, then use fiberglass reinforced body filler to smooth it out. Im going to add a pic of my brothers car, with the rear quarter cut out to try to maybe help any confusion or something. This is with the new quarter screwed on.

We now have the quarters "glued" in and my brother is smoothing it all out. I think one side is all done now. It was alot easier than we had thought it would be. Looking through my old post, i forgot to metion that you need a special gun that the adhesive goes into, so you can put it out evenly. It gives you like 30-45 mins to work with it, getting it perfect, so thats also a plus. You have to lay down adhesive on both the replacement panel and the body. Its best to have two people, so you have lift it around or any other small task can be done better and quicker. In his door jams, we are just smoothing them out. After they were glued down, he went back with the grinder and smoothed it even more, then applied the fiberglass reinforced mud. Its best to start with long haired fiberglass mud, then go to short hair, then to bondo. Around the wheel well, after it was glued, he just bent it around some more with a hammer, and I am sure he will smooth that out even better later. I will post a pic with this post, then I will make a couple other posts with more pics. I swear I already posted once in this thread, but i think i tried to put more than one pic per post. It didnt seem to work for me.
