Hey Doug, I just saw this thread. I went out, did a quick measurement and came up with 6 1/8" (plus or minus 1/64"). I couldn't find my wife's "soft tape" but used a piece of paper to do it! This is on an original rear quarter panel by the way. Hope that helps. (Oh, and it's for a '69!!)

Thanks Joe for the confirmation, and thanks Paul for the work on the measurements and templates from your 68's. I'm super appreciative.

They look great! Glad they went to good use. I still have my original 68 L79 nova quarter panels. I could cut them so you can use them for a template for nova emblem and marker light if you haven't figured them out yet.
