is there an order i want to do this in? i have a 65 that needs at least rear fender lips and partial floor. i am a decent welder but have never done this kinda job. seams like i would do the quarter panels first, then the inner wells welded to that then the floor? any advice or brands to use would really be of help. also looking for 64-65 sheet metal in northern california.

Work from the inside out!!
If you do the quarters first kinda hard to work on the wheelwells...Eric

full sleeve. if the lips on your quarters is all that is bad you might want to consider fixing the orginal ones. i havent restored the model you are questioning but. i would contact someone like goodmark and find a local prefered dealer in there products. usually a big chevy dealership, because of the aftermarket hood fad on the new chevy trucks. goodmark refered me to a large chevy dealership here that was $1200.cheaper than other distributers on new rear clip for a 70 graemlins/thumbsup.gif
