rear tail light panel
Need some advice on how to remove the passenger side rear tail light panel. My '67 has been previously hit and would like to replace it LMC sells a whole panel which make it look a lot nicer .

Re: rear tail light panel
I haven't done that specific repair on a bump but I have replaced panels on other vehicles. Basically you have to find all the spot welds and drill them out with a spotweld drill bit (to minimize holes in the panel you are not replacing) and then you will still need an air hammer to finish knocking the panels apart. It is a lot of labor but it is not impossible to do. You may want to watch a few videos about it and see if it is something you want to do.

I knew I'd seen that somewhere! I searched all over for those photos, Jerry, I can't believe I didn't remember that was your project.
