On an E body. In what order do you remove and replace the panels? Is it the quarter or rocker first?

If your dutchman panel needs replacing, I would do that one first then the quarter, then the rocker panel.

Cut the dutchman just on the inside of the seam.

So the rocker panel overlaps the quarter at the mating seam?

No quarter over laps rocker. Really they just meet. Should be leaded there. Too much thickness to do body filler.

so you can remove and replace the quarter, then remove and replace the rocker and just fit the rocker inside the quarter? Top cat have you got a pic of that seam before filler?
