Original quarters on this 69 Z28?

Guy I know is considering buying this car and sent several pics of the car to me. Car is reported to be in Original Paint. The car has some rust and fairly dented up. My car is not with me so I can’t compare but do these quarters look original to you guys? Seems to me there is a seam on the drivers side and what looks like a repair up around the trunk gutter. I recall a brace under the package tray to the quarter that is like a small triangle. Does not look like it is there in these pics. Thanks for the help.

Don't know about a patch. Not sure where you are looking. I can't look at my car righ tnow, but that spray pattern for the sound deadener looks just like what was on my car.

Thanks Lynn.

After blowing up these pictures on my laptop and not just looking on my iphone I do now think that the quarters are original to the car.

Is there a date stamp in the in trunk opening recess in the top corners?

The brace is clearly there, on both sides. I don't see any evidence of a seam or overlap like a patch/skin was installed.

Yeah the brace is definitely there, both sides, those quarters look unmolested.

Looks like a decently sharp line of undercoating in a rectangle shape which is also evidence of a factory application
