Will the 1965 GT 350R Rear Seat Delete Panel also fir the 67/68 Shelby Fastbacks or is it too narrow?

What is the difference between a '65 GT350 rear seat replacement panel and an "R" panel?

IF you are referring to what we call the '66 GT350 rear seat replacement panel, with the raised reinforcement strips and without the spare tire enclave, then yes it fits the 67-68 fastback.

The 65 street panel actually fits the car also but the spare tire enclave does not match up well with the 67-8 profile and a bit of fabrication is necessary in that case.

Here is a picture of a '66 fiberglass reproduction panel in my 68 GT350. The originals are molded plastic and do not do well with any kind of exposure to warm temps.

Thank you, that is what I was looking for.
