Re: HELP on a 73 Torino fastback

My only suggestion is by far a crude one at best:
Sacrifice a pair of 1971-1973 mustang wheelhouses, assuming you have to do both sides.
I looked at a 69-70 mustang wheelhouse, and a 71-73 mustang wheelhouse at a local ford mustang resto parts place here in town, and compared wheelhouses, neither are the same, it's going to be a pain in the rear to weld, and is going to be a time suck.
I had to repair my outter on my 1972 GTS, and a few select words were said, all relating to the fact I wish I had my rotisserie built already so I could flip my body for easier welding of the wheelhouse.
