I got the front half of it to line up but the back does not match up with the trunk pan. I tried moving the trunk up but will not move. should I add metal to the bottom of the wheel house or keep on hiting the trunk until it lines up?

what year is that? the 70/2 has two of its 4 trunk braces running down the top of the frame in that area and the inner drops in outboard of the frame; do you have your floor braces in place when your fitting your floor? I might be smoking (well maybe second hand smoke) something, or these damned bi-focals are playing tricks on me again, but it almost looks like the inner is flipped side to side. Is the area where your mech gloves are in the area of the 1/4 drop down panel or is this pic looking in from the wheel opening? Can you post of pic looking in from the rear into the trunk area, I think that would help.

edit, I see a 60s model, sorry never worked on one of those, but I still have to wonder if it is not supposed to drop down inside the frame rail, probably to the outside of it.

I am sorry but it is a 66 2 door hard top. here is a pic from inside the trunk. as you can see the trunk lip does not line up with the inner wheel house.

something looks just a little off.... on that year does the floor meet the inner fender, what I mean is, on the 70/72 the inner wheel houses drop below the edge of the floor and hangs down several inches past the top surface of the frame, this makes up a kinda slash guard for the under side and rear lower edge of the quarter. The trunk floor then butts up to it. It appears that your attempting to have a flush fit with the lower edge of the fender and the bottom edge of the trunk floor. Also, as I said, on the later model the trunk brace runs on top of the frame, spaced up off it a few inches by the body bushing, the floor then sits on top of it. There is at least 1 1/2" between the top of the frame and the bottom of the actual floor. It also looks a little like the floor you have is narrow where it is meeting the inner. I had one that appeared that way because the lip that turns down on the edge of the floor was not shaped correctly and it was hitting the inner 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch below the top surface of the floor and holding it back away from the inner. I had to do some stretching of metal on the lip and re-shaping it to make a nice mating surface with the inner.

on the other side the bottom of the wheel house lined up flush with the trunk lip. but this side I am short one inch, and it is not meating the trunk floor enough to weld anything togeter. are thoes pics big enough for you becouse I can make them biger

do you have the outer portion of the inner fender handy? I assume that the 1/4s are on the car? just to make sure your positioned correctly I'd throw the outer position of the inner on, clamp it together with some vice grips and then clamp the edge where the fender lip and the wheel opening at the 1/4 meet. Then, see if you are not high on the positioning of the inner, it may need trimmed on the front (the part you think is OK at this point) so the rear comes down. I have found that on re-popped stuff I have sometimes had to cut things to get them to fit or reshaped them. I know I had to do some reshaping of the curve against the inner on the left side of the trunk floor I put into my son's 72 skylark. It is supposedly the same floor pan as the chevy A body so that is what I got, but I to do some "tweaking" on the curve to meet the factory inner just at the base of the slope up over the frame.

I wish I was at home. I have several pictures of the inner and outer and its relationship to the floor on the later car. It might, or might not help but it would at least make it easier for you to visualize what I'm not dong a good job of describing. I jumped out to my web page and looked at the pics I have on there but they are not large enough to really see it.

anyone body. I still need some help

has anyone PM you with any help? I am sorry I have not been much help. The more I look at your pic it looks like the pan is not wide enough or something? was it a one piece? If it was the three piece maybe you got the lap wrong. If it is a re-popped piece maybe it is just not a very good copy. How are your welding skills? could you cut it in an inch or so from the edge and splice in a strip to widen it?

No has PM me yet, but with the info you posted and me beating on my car, and rechecking the measuments it is getting closer, but not were I think it should be. The trunk is a 3 peice one. I wish they made the 64-67 trunks in one peice

i would suggest that you check the front of wheelwell .make sure you are on the correct side of the brace. you will need to install your tail section and quarter panel then shift and square it all up as you need to.it will take some fitting . take your time stand back and think! before you start whoopin it with a hammer.
