Where do the major differences exist in comparing catalina 2 dr quarters to bonneville convertible quarters? I'm princilably interested in the area around and infront of rear wheel and below the trim strip body line.

Comments please.

Those areas are the same. The Bonny 1/4's are longer behind the wheel by a couple of inches. Not sure how many, maybe 4-6?

There is a couple of inches difference in front of the wheel well opening to the door. Probably about 3 inches as the wheel base is 3 inches different from the Catalina to the Bonneville.

I can take some measurements of My Bonny 1/4 panel if that helps.

Thanks for the replys. I own a bonneville so I know how it looks, but wonder how different the catalina rear quarter is.

Has anyone tried the partial quarters available from JC Whitney? Do they even come close to fitting? I've tried partial patches on other vechicles through different suppliers and some are just a joke.

I have seen the ones from JC Whitney. The fit is fair to poor at best.
