Patch repair

Hi 3rd gen lovers, I'm needing patch panels for the inner rear wheel and can't seem to find any. Only thing I can find is 67/69 repair and look PRETTY DAMN CLOSE but I wasn't to sure if they would work. Plus what is the panel that is in between quarter and trunk. Pics will be attached.

Have to get one from the junk yard. If you cut it out larger than you need you can section the wheel house and trunk drop off too.

Re: Patch repair

New sheetmetal for the rear inner or outer wheelhouses are not available. Your options are cut it out of a rust free donor, or cut out the bad sections of yours and fabricate patch panels and weld them in.
