Wow - but if you have extensive rust and require major bodywork then $3,500 starts to look reasonable. Of the $8,000 bodywork bill I paid on my Fury, at least half was quarters and rockers.
What does surprise me is the amount of rust, albeit probably surface rust, showing on those NOS panels. Reinforces my theory that these quarters were designed to self destruct, a plot to increase new car sales!!!

surface rust..gawd knows where they've been sittin but panels on parts car not salvageable left me no choice...also with rust around the windows figured it was the lesser of two evils..the only saveing grace is l can swap these out myself as opposed to trying to fix the rust issues.. anyway glad l got them..like the grill woulda never seen another set so just hada suck it up and bite the bullet..
Way too much for that quarter,,you could come down here in AZ where nothing rusts and buy a whole rust free car and ship it home for that amount,,I only paid $500 for the entire full length right quarter including the rear quarter window area for my 67 polara 500 conv,,,and it was atleast 9' long,if it was gold plated maybe ,,,,
