Question Re: Need help on 1969 coupe trunk lid/quarter panel extensions swap???

What look is it that you are trying to find, same as the 1968 GT/CS?

What you need was offerered on the 1969 SHELBY MUST CONV-




You need to find take-offs or an aftermarket fiberglass company that makes the quater extensions and deck lid spoiler. Search vendors such as Tony Branda.

So I need to get 69 shelby deck lid and quarter extensions for my 69 coupe right? Should it be a pretty good fit?

Convertable 69. They will fit as well as the factory assembly.

Most aftermarket fiberglass needs to be trimmed/fitted if you're picky about gaps and fittment. You won't have to make any modifications to your body, they are all bolt on parts. A good body shop can make them fit well and match paint with your car. Branda Performance sells some high quality fiberglass.

Branda's are spendy so get ready for sticker shock! The deck lid is near 500 and the extensions are almost 100 a pop. Then the trim is still missing.

I have been looking at the same thing, how does the extenstions line up with the factory tail light panel if you retain the curved panel vice swapping in the shelby/CS lights? Big gaps there?
