I'm working on a restoration project for a 73 Z.  I'm trying to figure out what the proper mating should be between the back of the front fender and the front of the rocker panel.  Currently it appears there is no visible seam where they come together.  You would think there would be a visible seam where they butt together.  I think the previous owner may have just bondo 'd the seam then sanded it smooth. The z service manual doesn't really show a clear illustration on how they come together.  I dug out a few pics I had of the 71 I owned years ago but I cant tell from that either and no visible seam is appears.  Can anyone shed some light on this?  Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi z3beemer.  Here is a picture of my ‘71 z.  If this is the seam in question, hope it helps.

Thanks AZ-240z.  That's exactly what I needed.  Guess I need to get the grinder out and see if I need to replace the outer rocker panels as well a the fenders.  Thankfully the inside rockers are in goon shape.
