The 1968-1972 GM A-Body (Except Convertible / Wagon) Rear Inner Left Wheelhouse Panel is a precision-stamped steel replacement designed to restore the inner wheel tub structure on the driver side of your hardtop coupe or sedan. This panel sits between the outer wheelhouse and trunk floor, forming the inner wall of the rear wheel opening. It plays a vital role in supporting the quarter panel and maintaining body rigidity. Commonly affected by rust and corrosion, this panel is a must-have for structural restoration and proper alignment during quarter panel replacement.
Installation:
Difficulty: 5/5 – Requires cutting, welding, and advanced body panel alignment.
Instructions: Remove the outer quarter panel and damaged inner wheelhouse section. Clean and prep the surrounding metal surfaces. Test fit the replacement panel, ensuring proper alignment with trunk floor and outer wheelhouse. Weld securely into place, grind welds smooth, and finish with seam sealer and protective coatings before reinstalling adjacent panels.
