I dont have a 72 but here is the one for a 69. use a large peice of paper and tape it to the fender then mark it out first.

Where do I start from? Theres not really a starting point.

Let me look again...

OK I looked...I figured it out.

I printed that picture 3+ times taking it over to the car and trying to transpose and I just didnt feel comfortable...

Now I got it though... THANKS

I have a pair of templates that are cut out of original 70 Chevelle SS fenders. They are lined up with the wheelwell edge, the body line, and the rear edge of the fender. After they are put in the right position, which is self-explanatory when using them, you mark and drill the holes.
This works beautifully and is really the best way to get it right the first time.

Ausleys has a assembly manual with the measurements in it, however they are hard to read. DO NOT put them on until you are certain where they go. I have seen cars in National Magazines with the emblems in the wrong place and they look awful.

Thanks for this info. I'm doing a '72 SS 454 and have the diagram measurements, but I have ordered this and will check the assembly measurements against it. You can't be too sure about these things. Attention to detail goes along way with judges!!!!
