The 1968-1972 GM A-Body 2-Door Rear Window to Trunk Deck Filler Panel is a crucial replacement panel that restores the structural and cosmetic integrity of the area between the rear window and trunk lid. Commonly rusted due to water accumulation beneath the rear glass, this panel features factory-correct contours and edges for a seamless fit with the surrounding sheet metal. Stamped from heavy-gauge steel, it offers excellent strength and durability, making it ideal for both driver restorations and show-quality builds.
Installation:
Difficulty: 5/5 – Requires cutting, welding, and panel alignment skills.
Instructions: Remove the rear glass and trim. Cut out the old filler panel along factory seams, clean and prep surrounding surfaces. Test fit the new panel, ensuring alignment with the rear window channel and trunk opening. Weld into place, grind smooth, and finish with seam sealer, primer, and paint to protect against future corrosion.
