Hoping someone here has a 68 Plymouth Barracuda that can assist me with the location of the quarter panel side marker light.

My Barracuda is originally a 69 model but, I have an entire 68 front clip on the car. That consists of fenders and header panel. I have a fiberglass lift off hood with a Hemi scoop. As you know the 68 model years used round marker lights on the front fenders and quarter panels.

I have cut out the rectangular quarter panel markerlights and have welded in a patch panel.

The next step is to drill a hole for the round 68 markerlight but, I need a location to know where to drill.

I know this is asking a lot but, if some could measure from the side rear bumper hole and provided measurements, that would really help me out.

Thank you,
Mike

I love it!!!...........I've been keeping an out for a coupe. You just don't see many of those, and ones that are still factory original.

Thanks for sharing......almost forgot to add, your coupe color is the same as mine before painting. Going from memory, F8?
 
Have a long road ahead of me. Am retired but trying to get back to work. Converting a /6 to V8 is very expensive. Car was in such good shape could not pass it up. Still lacking rear diff. Thinking of Moser package. Same price almost for what people want for original A body 8-3/4. Need driveshaft, clutch, flywheel, springs, torque boxes ,torsion bars , brakes, wheels and tires, and the list goes on. Glad you like the car though. Hope I'm able to see it through.
