Looking inside the trunk, are the 2 parts that make up the wheel tub the same on 2 door and 4 door cars?

Anything different in 69 from 68?

Thanks!!

Dave

I can't say for certain about Dodge inners and outers wheelhouse but I can provide input for Plymouth and I would bet that the same thing applies. My 68 Road Runner had been raced and mini-tubed. My outer wheelhouse was good but I needed to replace the inners. My donor car was a 4 door Satellite and not only did the inners line up perfectly but I needed to splice a small section of the frame rails. What I found was that the frame rail section was also a perfect fit even down to the small ripples in the curved section. Telling me that the frames were probably made on the same machine for both 2-door and 4 door. Pretty sure though that the outers are different between 2 and 4-door.
