    I am looking for an inner fender for drivers side 68 Riviera. With battery tray would be even better. Mine is rusted out through battery tray and front tang on inner fender. let me know if anyone has one.

    Thanks,

    Have one but I know the Batt tray is gone. Its part of the core support the inner tub may be ok.

    Do you know if the 68-70 inner tubs were interchangeable. there is one on E-bay here in California w/battery tray in pretty good shape. Thanks!

    After market, vinyl coated, steel, universal fit trays are available if it's only the tray you need. :Do No:

    I ended up buying an inner fender off e-bay with the attached battery tray. Overall in very good condition. A little POR-15 and fresh paint and it will look new! Can someone tell me if I need to remove the outer fender to install the inner fender? Or can I just unbolt and drop it down. I would prefer not to remove outer fender if not needed.
    Thanks!

    Yu will need to remove the front bumper(not a big deal) and then the outer fender. Make note of where and how many shimes were in each location. The 2 bolts on the bottom of the fender behind the wheel are in cage nuts. soak them with PB or WD the day before you plan on doing it..
