    Here is a shot of my quarters. Theres a few more pins in the front section than I would have liked, but the car has been hit there before, so things were a littel stubborn. They do fit very well.

    I love seeing and reading the build-up/body restoration pics and stories.....especially convertibles. Thank you Jon ,TimR, George N, and a guy from the Boston area...I think his name was Rich. I thought he wrote up some of his restoration work here on V8Buick.com but can't find it now but did see it in a magazine a couple of months back. Anyway, George N.. has a nice write up on his site about quarter replacement that Tom Gwillim wrote (excellent work)...
