    Ok here it is. I have a 65 Skylark drop top in need of 1/4 panels. I found a 64 special.skylark in a junk yard w/ 1/4 w/ NO BONDO! but its a 4dr. Would this still fit on my skylark drop top? and the guy wont part w/ the panels he wats 1,00o for the whole car!!! its white 4dr v6 A/c...is it worth it?

    Its very high for the car for just those parts but you can use the inner outer fenders, rear bumper only. The interior parts are not going to get you anything. I paid 50 bucks for the patch panel after I cut it off.

    Heres the thing those jerks when they loaded it into its grave they snaged the bumper and bent it so its got a 90 degre bend other wise its MINT!...so the 4dr panels would still work for my drop top.

    You can use them as a patch panel but they are shorter. You can see I used the 4 door panel but it is shorter. I only needed to fix some rust behind the rear wheel and this was the patch panel.

    so its shorter. What about the height? Should i just pass on this? I'd hate to leave it cuz its a solid car no rot but 1,000 for the whole car or 600-700 for the back half.

    I think its to much but I dont know you car. If you find a good metal guy he can make and bend a patch panel for that kind of money but I dont know how bad you panels are. You will not know until you get into it.
    Good Luck

    If you buy it, you can get your $1000 back by selling the parts you don't need off the car on this website.
