Is there an order that is best to install quarters, floors and trunk.
I am fitting the quarter on a 67 conv. Firebird right now but got to thinking there may be an order to this. Any feedback?
I will be installing a trunk kit, two quarters and the floor pans. I don't think it is a full trunk but it has the center section ,two side panels and the drop-offs.
I will also be replacing the rear light panel.
Thanks

Yep ... Following asumes full trunk floor replacement Minimium one quarter and the rear body panel have to be removed, but alot easier with both cut off.

1) trunk floor (side fillers, tank braces ect.. add any missing braces ect now much easier when its in front of you.)
2) Rear inner valance
3) side drop offs
4) 1/4's the rear ties into side drop offs under rear body panel
4a) trunk jamb (w/strip trough)
5) rear body panel

partial trunk repairs.. pretty much same order as above
You don't need the 1/4's off or rear body panel but it makes it alot easier
