64studeavanti Posted February 7, 2023 Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 Working on interior R5408. Ordered new panels from Ernie Loga. Ernie shipped 2 lower panels and 1 upper for a total of 3 pieces per side. My Avanti only has 2 pieces, lower and upper. Does anyone know if this was a late change, maybe when they changed the rear quarter window latch? Ernie is sending the 2 piece similar to what I have. FWIW, R5408 was shipped in December. Just trying to get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

64studeavanti Posted February 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2023 Here are pictures. Ernie sent the black panels. They are similar to the following set which I took out of 63 Avanti. There are some holes missing and some of the holes are the wrong size. I could add the missing holes, so that is not a big issue. The last pictures are what is in the 64 Avanti R5408 that I am currently working on. It was finally assembled in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

64studeavanti Posted February 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 Hopefully, someone with a late 64 model Avanti can post a picture of the rear quarter panel interior. Some where around R5408, assembled in November/December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

64studeavanti Posted February 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 Thanks for the picture. Is the panel 1 or 2 pieces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob caser Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 Two pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
64studeavanti Posted February 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 Thanks, look like there was a change from the 3 piece quarter panel to 2 piece. Maybe that occurred after the change to solid color upholstery or "new" quarter window latch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
