Again, I am struck by just how cool your rotisserie is.
Doing underneath mine took me weeks of scraping and painting by hand. You are going to be able to do a great job there will. Keep it up :thumbright:

That came from Year one too very good quality. It's called a Deck Lid / Trunk Lid Filler Panel. The one for your Charger is part No: MX34

Hi Jerry,

Ask JPC he's probably done some in the UK!

As in, you need to find a full rear frame rail then set it up on a JiG and weld the sucker in LoL!
Not many people in Europe set up for that? :D

Hi Duncan, were you being serious about junking the rear frame rails???
Tragic if its true!
My Cali-Moparmate junked a great pair of 71 Charger rear frame rails.
He had saved them for me for my 71 Gtx, but I didn't need them and the cost of shipping was ridiculous!!! :shock:

No-one wants to restore rusty cars anymore, except for me, Fetish, Sinny, you, Ivor etc, etc, etc.......................
Well maybe a few Lol!!! :help:

Bacman.

Requires more metal and more welding but less bending and stronger.
And if you were attaching it to a non-flat surface, you can bend the base section to a perfect fit and profile the box sides to match!
