Driver side quarter panel for 1965 Jetstar 1 or Starfire
Need driver side quarter panel for '65 Jetstar 1. Will also take one from '65 Starfire and modify to fit if necessary. Would prefer something that's straight, some rust on bottom or very minor issues would be o.k. Willing to travel a reasonable distance and remove depending on location.
I'd like to find a quarter I can hang at the factory locations. Due to the different roofs and rear quarter glass between the 88's and the Starfire/Jetstar 1, I'm skeptical that a full quarter would remotely fit due to differences on the topside of the quarters between the 2 different body styles. If I sectioned in the quarter at the upper body line, maybe. The Jetstar 1 I'm working on was hit real hard some time in the distant past directly between the wheel opening and the bumper. Someone heated all the carnage up repeatedly with a torch and then beat it out with something like a sledgehammer. There's about a half inch of bondo falling off and the metal underneath is very rusty and very distorted. The topside of the quarter is the same way all the way to the deck lid and there's damage on the trunk floor about a foot inward. Astoundingly, the frame rail underneath looks good. Unfortunalety, in the last year I watched two rough '65 Starfire parts cars go to the crusher that could have yielded what I need. Both were very rusty and very well picked over but it's always what you don't save that ends up being what you need.
