    Been a long time coming. But I think it was worth the wait.

    Well done. My Dad had a 57 and a 63 Dodge. Am certain your way back did not look that good going out the factory door.

    Thanks everyone.

    Thank you my friend. There was no adhesive on the back of the panels themselves. I think I mentioned (probably in the post specifically about this project) that there is kind of an air gap between the actual metal fender well and the plastic interior panel. So the fellow doing the install added some insulation type material to the back of the panels. It's flexible enough to expand and contract, but fill that void. I think that will make a difference.

    Sorry to disappoint you Bill, but as you know this isn't a show car. It's meant to be used.
    So there will still be ice cream eaten in the way back. And I hope that never changes.
