This has been a work in progress for a number of years (many pics can be shared!!!).  At the moment we are trying to finish the quarter panels with the proper contour.  Does anyone have any images of their '55 Eldo quarter panels that they can share?

Thank you,
Alex

I might be a day late & a dollar short but here are some 1955 Eldorado quarter panel pictures in the shop.

Hope they help......your Q panels don't look too bad and are certainly heading in the right direction.

I gotta clean my lens on the camera......

G'day Mike,

Not dust on your Camera Lens, but dust in the air.

Happens every time when using the flash.   Take the cover off, and dust is flying everywhere.

There is a light lip at the wheel aperture which can not clearly be seen on those pictures. I had a section of the original fender lip from my '56 Biarritz, but right now this part is on loan to help somebody. If you do search into published pictures, you will see it.
