Spent the evening tweaking the location where the deck lid hinges tie-in to the package shelf structure that sits below the deck filler. I had disassembly pics of the one good side that wasn’t rotted out but the pics are pointless without replacement OEM stampings. I think I’m close enough now and can just tweak the deck lid mounting bolts if needed. Setting the height correctly so the lid blends into the deck filler and quarters seemed more important.

The deck filler is just sitting in place in this pic except for the rain gutter area held with clecos from below to check the finished height. I will unfortunately have to find a way to cinch the lower glass mounting area down to get the arch shaped correctly. This is the single major negative when using the chevelle package tray/shelf structure. The glass channel on the deck filler would normally spot weld to the structure below… but that was removed so the deck filler would sit properly (Chevelle arch shape was different and interfered with the GTO deck filler arch). It’s all good though, I have an idea for a simple solution... I hope. 😂
