I would like any and all advice on removal and replacement of rear 1/4's. I have purchased two goodmark full quarters. If any one out there has a good site to go to, or would not mind sending me some suggestions. I would like to do this myself, just to say I did. Some satisfaction in that. Oh the car is a 70 SS.

This months issue of CHP has a vary good write u pon replacing 1/4 on a 67 Chevelle.. allot of good pictures ..
warnings and pointers.. my only issue with tha article is
A. not enought time spent on fitting the rear window, trunk lid area.

b. the advise to weld solid the sail pannel ( it reads like you t od oit in one pass) How do you spell WARP ??

c. the holes drill t oplug weld.. they say t odo 3/16.. IMO that to small for penatration IMO..
5/16 is the min...

other then that a GOOD article...

Did a full goodmark myself without any prior body work expierence or mag. article. Its pretty straight forward, I found I had to work the panel into place, clamp in one spot work it into another spot clamp it there an so on, until all my lines matched. If your doing qauters know's the time to do wheelwells. When It comes to welding I would highly recomend a spot welder (check this link www.millerwelds.com/products/spotwelders/ (http://www.millerwelds.com/products/spotwelders/) glance over the handbook (pdf) for a rundown). It is so much easier and less time consuming and gives you that factory look. I welded mine with a mig and the process is much longer. First you have to mount the panel in place, mark all your spots for welds remove the panel drill pilot holes in your panel to weld into, then mount the panel again. Once you have welded it into place you have to grind your welds smooth. With the spot welder you simply mount your panel once and clamp the spot welder where ever you want a weld, and no grinding just a factory looking spot weld. I was about a month late in finding this out or I would have bought the spot welder, and done it that way. There about $450 US and personaly I think worth the money. It will probably take 1/4 of the time.
