torcobra · 1/4 panel replacements torcobra February 9, 2020 at 7:03 PM

Zed, I have done both full and partial. If your doors are still on the car leave them on for alignment or reinstall and align to original quarters. I have found that after market quarters can be a 1/4 longer and won't fit without body work. Ford sheet metal is the best option if you are not on a budget. Don't cut anything off the car until you are sure of fit and how to proceed. I do no over lapping seams, I butt weld all seams, water can get between the over lap and cause rust and pop out down the road. I have done a HIPO Fastback and 2 HIPO coupes . I can send you some pics if you like. Email me at torcobra@zoomtown.com

torcobra · Radiator Bracket. torcobra May 24, 2011 at 1:04 PM

I lucked into this radiator. Bought it because it was for a four speed. I didn't want to rebuild it until I tried to find a closer dated mounting bracket for my car. Maybe someone will have one to trade on the site or I might find one at Carlisle. Terry

No, I never ran this before. I need to tear it down and recheck the numbers. If I need a housing what would be the correct number to look for. Terry
