Re: CGT Fenders

I was able to use the fender off my 84 coupe on my 86.  I used an
appropriate size drill bit and a die grinder to make the holes square.  If
only I had been able to find a square drill bit it would have been so much
easier :-)  I have the left fender still but what a pita getting it off the
donor car.  I had to use a piece of safety wire to cut the sealant.
