When and where was your car built - we know that the cars were assembled differently at different plant (as well as all the running changes during 67 production) . Just want to supply the best information possible (and complete) to you.

Of course we may not have an exact match (time date & plant) to your but at least we can try

Is the green example unrestored and the other two restored ?

[ruppstang]

Yes the green was a unrestored that I judged. The red is my car that I restored in 94 and the aqua is a friends that he restored in the 90s. Marty

Have those - but when was your car assembled/built and where ? Have a fair number of samples that may vary from plant to plant

Ok - going to the Resto-Mod shop tomorrow - believe they have one or more from each plant currently. Will snap a few of each in preparation for a response

Hopefully this will meet your needs - if not I should be able to post more

These show the panels and the original welding points - before sealer. One spot weld was missed during the build process. The "X" on the passenger lower lip of the filler panel. You should be able to make out the brazing and spot welds under the primer. Hope this helps

[J_Speegle]

Quick extra shot that I had handy (sorry its a coupe) of the area with the end cap in place. Love those spot welds

[GTfastbacker]

PERFECT  It helps a lot!

Thanks so much!
