Inner Fender Splash Panel

[Norse]

Anyone got a spare one to fill in the missing?

 

[80mirada]

I might, I will check

 

[volare 1977]

are they the same as f body? if so, I may have some.

 

[Norse]

80mir & volare 77; Thanks!

I am not sure what body styles it crosses over.

 

[volare 1977]

i have this off f body. it looks to be different

 

[XfbodyX]

They interchange, you need the metal or al.? Ive a stack of both.

 

[Norse]

The other side (passenger) looks like it's bare aluminium.
So I'd like to keep them looking symmetrical.

 

[XfbodyX]

Your out of luck on the AL. unless I can think if I saved them or tossed them, ive a extra set of steel but have plans for this set of Al. ones I could find.

 

[80mirada]

I will look for mine, I think I have three aluminum ones....

 

[old yellow 78]

Huh. I didn't realize there were different ones. I'll have to look out of curiosity to see which ones OY has. I didn't think to take any as spares from the parts cars. Did they change over at a certain point in time, or on certain cars, or was it completely random?

 

[XfbodyX]

Its pretty much a year thing, early Fs steel, later fmj-s Al.

Probably a bean counter thing.

 

[old yellow 78]

Ah. Maybe weight too perhaps, although I can't imagine that the difference would be worth it. I do know that they reduced the weight of the windshields and bumpers, I think it was in '78.

The steel ones are painted black. The aluminum ones are “bare”.
I believe all FMJ’s will interchange as well as Left to Right.
