Looking for a doner 70 chevelle/malibu for sheetmetal to finish my trunk repairs. I need the piece that goes across the back inside the trunk where the lock bracket is spot welded. I also need the two very corners of the quarter panels that follow the trunk lid curve as mine are rusted through in spots and I can't afford quarters.

Any help or information where I can get these is greatly appreciated.

If anybody knows of somewhere that I can call to get doner parts please let me know. I am in the Baltimore, Maryland area.

This guy will cut a car in half for you, you can find him on e-bay, send him an e–mail. Last time I checked he still had 70 parts cars. (About 2 months ago)

Are you referring to the end of the quarter above the rear tail lights on either side of the trunk lid? You're not likely to find good replacements for that area, but they are not that difficult to patch. Let me know if you need some pointers on how to patch them. Just did a pair yesterday in fact.

professor did you ever use that 307 you got from me early spring time? storm

Ron, Ground up has a tail lamp panel with brackets for 195.

Thanks for the info guys. I e-mailed the guy in arizona and will be waiting for a reply.
And yes rick that is one area that I am talking about but my main concern is across the inside of the trunk area. It is pretty bad. Hopfully a parts car will come through.

He blew up his v6 about the time I got your 307 so I gave it to him. The tranny is sitting in the garage, all cleaned up waiting to go in the 70. I have a turbo 400 for the 70 but I needed a good tranny in it so I can move it in and out while I work on it. In order to put in the 400 I would need to have my motor/tranny and drive shaft ready as well as column linkage, etc. I don't have the bucks right now. The wife's job situation has stopped most of the progress on both the 70 and the GMC truck.

Thanks again for the engine and tranny.

rick

your welcome .im glad it went to good use. storm

OPG sells a "taillamp patch panel" but it ain't cheap- $170. I think, though, that this is the part that you are describing. You might be better off with the donor car.
