    If you think this is some thing we need to look at for reproduction,, Please let me know,,, If this part is Special to the Mavericks and Comets,, it would be some thing for us to make,,, But if its the same as a Mustang,, and its made over sea's,,, I would rather concentrate my effors to Parts The Comunity has to have specific to Maverick and Comet,,:Handshake

    My shifter is rock solid just bolted to the hump. I don't get why people think this part is so important. If I had one I'd use it, but it really doesn't make any difference. The trans tunnel is pretty **** stiff on its own.

    It is not same as Mustang since Mustangs don't use them. I'm sure if they were available ... people would use them .... Where they rank on Priority? Probably far down on the list ..

    Are Fender patch panels (lower portion by the door) and around the marker lights being made My fenders are great except those areas. Seems like low cost patches for those areas would be good for those who don't need all new fenders

    Sounds like a plan,,, would we need to make 2 diferant styles for big bumper and small bumper aplications for the front part of the fender,,?
    The rear part I know would be fine,,, but it would make the conversion allot easier if the front was made 2 diferant ways for the marker lights,:Handshake

    I don't know if the fenders are different for big versus small bumpers, I suspect they are Seems like there is a seam and then a lower portion attached to the fender, on the front portion of the fender but I don't rememeber for sure I have a big bumper car

    The diferance between the big bumper car and the small bumper car fenders is the Notch for the stone guard on the 69 to 72 or maybe even 73,,,, So if needed we could make 2 iferant ones that would have the contours and bends in it for either year,,:Handshake

    there are not any of these being produced. They are talking about how the brake and fuel lines are already being produced.

    Also...I wouldlike to know about the quarter panels..I asked about it on the second page and I think it may have been overlooked.
