Actually guys, I need help with something.
The project car has early GM replacement quarters and the placement of the rear marker lights I need to verify as they are pretty crudely cut (let alone the Nova emblem placement above it but that will be step 2...)
I have scoured the 68 AIM and Chassis manual and I cannot for the life of me any references on how to locate proper position of the marker and/or emblem … I’m looking to drill appropriate holes on the replacement quarters.
As a starting point I will look to confirm a proper location of the rear marker light. I think the 68 and 69 position should be the same… but want to verify. I have measured the distance (with a soft tape) from the top rear of the bezel to the rear edge of the fender on the project 68 and my completed 69. .
See picture below. On the 68 it is 7” from top bezel edge to edge of fender. On my 69 car it’s 6 1/8”. Seems Like too large of a difference to be left to factory variance.
Can anyone else take a quick measurement on a 68 or 69 like I did in the picture below?
