Re: How do you remove the front quarter panels/fenders on a 67 c10

I think collectively, everybody has you covered.

Don't forget to take a "fine line" marker (a very sharp pencil will work too) and mark the location of your hood hinges on the hood and the fender(s). That makes the hood alignment so much easier.

Grab a handful of resealable sammich bags and a big "Sharpie" and label the bags something like "left fender, left inner fender" & put the bolts for each piece of sheet metal in its own little baggie.

I almost forgot, when you're trying to lift the fender off & it doesn't want to come off, wiggle it very gently to see where it's not moving. That is where the bolt(s) that you missed will be. Don't ask how I know this!
