I'm hoping someone here owns a 62 plymouth, i'm stuck trying to make the wheel lip in front of the rear tire.. both of mine are so far gone i can't even guess at it. I really could use some pics of this area from inside/above with a measurement or 2 of how far the inner lip sticks out from the flat end of the rocker there (the bottom horizontal area mainly, i could work out the rest from that i think... If there is someone nice enough to make me some templates of the outer wheel lips out of project board/cardboard that would be amazing, i don't know of a single 62 near me i can look at and i know if i just guess it's gonna be bad.. Really hating this car right now, once i get through this i will feel better :) thanks guys.

I don’t know if it’s much of a help but I’ve used fender pieces to repair quarter lips. Might help get you closer if your got nothing back there to even guess with

The lips isn't so much the issue as the inner lip which helps me get the placement of the outer lip correct, i have no idea how far the inner is supposed to stick out from the rear of the rocker and have been looking for weeks and can't find a single picture of that area (why would anyone take one normally)

Another weird thing is, i have been looking at all the 62' plymouths and some pics look like the front of the wheel arch goes forward at a angle and others look like it goes at an angle then straightens around 4" from the bottom.. soo there is that also :) I'm just surprised how few 62's are on this forum.
