67 Barracuda Fastback Rear Panel Question

[noisydart]

Have a 67 Fastback. The car came with the left rear panel removed.
Its a triangular panel with a cork type insulation on the back and a thin chrome
trim piece. Problem is there are no fasteners. How does this panel attach? Some
kind of screws and or clips I image.
Any help on what sizes they are, where to get etc. would be appreciated

The panel is held in with screws.

Thanks for the clip info.
Al - can you give me the size of the screws ?

Wanted to add that the metal that the screws would go into has just big holes.
Must be some kind of slip on piece that accepts a screw (?)

The large side panels go in first, don’t recall how many points it makes contact with but there should be slots there, I’m guessing 1/2” #8

Daves69: I believe he is talking about the side panel, not the trunk divider panel.

Noisydart: They are a variety of holes. The small ones take sheet metal screws that secure the side panel. The larger ones are passthroughs for the clips that secure the trim strip.
