MY FIRST 69
Jun 10th, 01, 10:34 PM
I am soon going to have quarter skins put on my 69 and I was wondering if i should drop my gas tank. The whole car is stripped (parts that is) no interior, tail lights, marker lights, bumpers or front clip. Just the shell and the wiring. Anything els I should do? thanks

There is no need to drop the tank, unless for painted reasons. Is the car on the ground on it's wheels? That is where it should be for quarter replacement.

Like MARTINSR said, plus I would leave the doors on and adjust to the exsisting 1/4 & rocker before they are cut off. Then he can check the fit of the 1/4 to the door. Leave the trunk lid on also (for the same reason).
You could also remove the 1/4 glass (and rear glass) out if you haven't already.
