Re: [Chrysler300] 64 Quarter panel project

Dave, you shouldn't need a flange if you're putting it on at factory seams. Melt the factory lead to expose all the spotwelds and go from there

Subject: [Chrysler300] 64 Quarter panel project

Hello Members,

I finally found time and tools to remove quarter panel skin from semi frame up to door jamb.

This is a big section of 300, spot weld cutters and abrasive cutting wheels are engaged.

I should have outer skin and trunk extension removed, in one piece, with more than enough steel left.

I will be using Eastwood flanger tools. My big question is.. when ready to cut into the vehicle, a long seam will exist.

Does the car section get flanged, or does the donor skin get flanged.

I intend to cut into the 300 after the Spring meet. should be interesting, having straight panels with tight fitting trim.

Any tips or experience will be accepted.

Thanks all,

Dave in Va.
