I'm stripping a rough, rough 69 Cutlass. I was planning on saving as much body as possible (I bought it for the frame and drive train), but the panels are a lot rougher than I thought at first. I'm kinda limited on space and was thinking about scrapping the fenders and doors. The fenders are completely rusted gone behind the tire (outer skin and brace support behind it. They are also rusting the lips pretty good too. I know they are no aftermarket fenders for 68-69 but should I be saving these as rough as they are? The doors are in need of help to. This car came from New York and all the floor pans were GONE. Only thing holding the gas tank up was the filler neck catching on the rear bracket. The deck lid is rusting at the lip on the inside and the hood as rust holes in the under bracing. The doors are rusting in the normal areas too. These are rougher than my current parts. Looking for any input from the veteran Olds guys on here.

 

One mans junk is another's treasure...

 

X2 but then again my wife says I am a pack rat so I would post them for sell and take the best offer if they don't sell then scrap and you won't have any regrets tell about two weeks after there gone

 

They do make 68 69 fenders check them out at the Parts Place they just started carrying them, kind of pricey 500 each and I dont know if they fit good but they say they are fantastice and are the best they have every made. That remains to be seen.

 

Sounds like scrap to me.

I'd put them up for sale, first here, then on eBay, and when they don't sell, scrap 'em.

Try eBay

 

I tend to hold on to stuff also, but recently scrapped 2 '68 fenders that were junk, Also a couple doors. I did strip off the door latches, regulators, & any other bolt on part of the door though. I have been taking a sharpie & labeling everything I can, so in a year or two when I find it again I'll know what it goes to.

 

Scrapped them. I saved the plastic inners though. They are faded but appear fine.

 

I am looking for seats and some wiring harness's for a 68 442 rag top. Heater harness w/ac, whatch got?
