Can anybody tell me the difference between a Catalina 2dr hdtp and Bonneville 2dr hdtp 1/4 panels. People are telling me the Bonneville's is longer but I have no way to confirm this. Can anybody give me a measurement. I have a NOS 1/4 panel and was told its for a Bonneville but I want to be sure before its up for sale. Thanks!!!

A Bonny was 7 inches longer overall than a Cat. Dont know about the 1/4s though.

The Bonneville was a little longer wheel base and I know they are longer in front of the wheels and also a bit in the rear. I will have to look in my sale information and body manual and see for sure. Let you know tomorrow.

the total length of the Bonneville is 223.5 inches and the Cat is 216.5 also the Bonneville is a 124 inch wheel base as to the Cats 121 wb.
The front ends are the same as are the doors so the extra length is in the rear 1/4s. There is no info as far as the length of either quarter but if you want I can measure my GP I beleave them to be close to the Cats, at least bellow the sharp body line. Pat

68 Prix, Could you please measure your 1/4 so I know for sure what my 1/4 panel fits. Thanks

I will do that tomorrow.

The rear quarter measured 20 inches from the door opening to the wheelwell opening. That is right at the bottom of the upward sweep. The total length is at the main sharp body line from door opening to bumper opening is 86 inches.

If these are Cat rear quarters how much are you asking for these? Thanks Pat
