Stupid question, but I will ask - 08/12/14 02:07 AM
70 cuda the inner front splash shields that go between the front fender and door where not installed when the car was put together. Don't ask why, to this day it stills bugs me. I have resolved to put them on. Is there anyway to do this now that the car is together without taking the fender off?

I assume I have to jack it up take the wheels off?

It probably could be done on the ground with 1/4" drive ratchet, short extention & the wheel cranked to one side.

Do you have any idea what size the bolts are?

Those would be the top two, the ones down the side are the sheet metal screws?

If I recall correctly. Someone has a hardware kit made up for these. I used it to install them on my car. Sorry I can not remember where I bought the kit.

Thanks for the help. The 2 A bolts go on the bottom, and the 6 B bolts work their way up the shield, correct?

He did cite the source of the material, he did not receive reimbursement, or print the book in its entirety. What it did do was help someone out in a pinch. It also has inspired me to search and find out where I can purchase such a useful book. In the not to distant future I plan on buying the book. So I greatly appreciated the help and hope no one gets in trouble.

Here's Byron & Dave's book, it along with a factory service manual is real handy when working on these old cars.

I bought a book also after Gary posted a picture I needed for my Cuda valence bolts a few years back, book has been very helpful.
BTW not a stupid question!
