Is that trunk extension that the paperwork was found in is located inside the lower part of the quarter panel? Is that the area that is referred to?




My note on the picture is where I found the card... tucked/dropped down in the quarter extension. (Panel between trunk floor and quarter panel rear of wheel.)

On the paint inspection document, there's the word "loose" over the REAR STONE SHIELD box. (rear valance). I believe it was damaged at some point in assembly. The one on the car had NO primer, just the Sassy Grass topcoat that was loosing adhesion fast ! Backside was rusty... (rest of the car was all original paint zero rust California most of it's life.) The Dana had Sassy Grass overspray, apparently from painting the rear valance in place. My first thought was shipping damage fixed at the dealership, but after finding this Paint Inspection Document, it appears to have been a factory repair... and a very poor one !

Fun stuff...
