    [​IMG] Ford Maverick/Mercury Comet Quarter/trunk drops

    On ebay right now for $47.85
    I've heard of such things for Mustangs and the like but I've never seen them. Anyone seen or heard of these, or maybe own a pair??? If so I'd like to see a pic of them in the car.
    Do they fit all Maverick years? We used to cut and fit wood paneling or plywood in the rear wells back in the day. lol Just never seen such a thing actually in a car.

    Those are at the back of your quarter panel, they go up to meet the trunk floor.
    The guy making them, is a member here.

    I have a pair. Used for rust repairs. It is where your trunk floor drops down on the sides to meet the bottom of the quarters.

    I'm afraid I can't find them in autokrafters catalog, nor on Melvin's website. I know 3PG had them, but their website is down and I'm not even sure if they exist anymore
