thats how long I have been looking for it. A very generous fellow let me use the panel from his car to let me finish mine in the body shop and I owe him this. He is working on finishing his car now and needs this. Looking for the communities help to return the favor given to me.

In Springfield there is a guy selling a new rear quarter for the driver side. $600, but I mean this is the whole rear quarter. It's on Boston CL. It's for a 240, so not sure of the fitment.

Wow. You could buy one of these advertZed S30 parts cars for a lot less than $600, and cut the panel out yrslf. Except for the 2+2s, the bodies are all the same.

A warning, tho ~ the rear panels contain several layers of sheet metal, all folded together. It's easy to cut around the wheel, but the farther you go rearward, the harder it is to cut thru. Not an easy task, altogether. I broke a lot of SawZall blades trying to cut the rear panel off the old Club parts car. Several layers of metal meet at the corners.

Well I had a guy come down one time and cut a rear quarter off for himself. I told him it's free if you cut it. well, ended up using my saws-all, yea, Makita out does black and decker. After all that work, for something that's not totally rust free...........if it was me I would just pay the money and get the new one. Time and work is money. IF....IF....IF....You find a parts Z that's not rusted for under $600 bucks, let me know. I just lost a 260 for $300, gota move quicker.
