Hello, everyone.

I hope I'm doing this right, I'm a little new to the forum thing.

Anyway, I need a little help. Recently I picked up a 1970 Coupe that is in a pretty good condition body-wise for a hell of a price. The only issue is that I can't seem to find quarter panel extensions for this year. Every other year, sure.
My question is, Does anyone know a site that has reproduction ones for the 70 coupe, or maybe know if another years (like the 69) would fit the 70?

70 is all by its self . Some of the early 70s did use the 69 end cap but the shape and fit for the later 70 is completely different from the 69 .Be sure what caps yours uses .

The top point of the 69 type end cap is pointed ,the top point of the later 70 is blunt and about 3/4 to 1 inch wide .Can you post a pic on the old caps or the end of the quarter ?

Unfortunately the car just didn't have any on when I picked it up, I asked the guy if he may have forgotten them, but it was as it is when he got it

A pic of the end of the quarter will help ,the top point will be a sharp point if it will take the 69 caps ,if it is blunt it will have to have the 70 caps and they may be hard to find .Some where around here i have a set of 69s, if i can find them
