Thanks, that's a detail I've never noticed, but will add when the time comes.

It seems that the lower quarter panel edges were handled in more than one manner from the factory. Whether it was model specific or not I don't know. I've seen some (tudors for sure) that have had "scallops" similar to what you show above (between the door and wheelwell anyways). Any roadsters I've seen have had tabs about 1-1/2" long, folded alternately inside & outside of the outer edge of the subframe between the door and the wheelwell, and a plain narrow lip folded under the same edge in the wheelwell area itself. There was another post about this not too long ago I think - if I can find it I'll attach the link.


Here's the link to the other thread about a week ago, but there wasn't much discussion at that time. As Marco said then, maybe Brent will jump in with some of his observations.
