No ill will intended, it's definately not the craftsmanship that makes the panel look big it's the original design of the car. I was just picking up on others thoughts on the panel and offering my thoughts on making it blend. Your brother obviously has some serious skills and tools to put out panels like this, I'm jealous.
I'm wondering, will those panels that cover the back of the rear seat still allow for the seat to be installed?
I'm not sure if I totally understand the question, but if you are asking if you can install your rear seat over top of bulkhead, the answer would be no. The rear bulkhead panels are usually installed in place of the rear seat. The majority of the people that purchase these are drag racers that are trying to lighten there cars by shedding as much of the interior as possible. If I misunderstood your question, please let me know and I will try to clarify. Thanks
He would like to include door panels for the later model year Mavericks, but we don't have a door panel to use as a pattern. If anyone has a 74 or later door panel in the NW Ohio area, please let us know.
wow...those look real nice...actually im restoring the panels of my car too but after i've seen this i was like... do i have to keep the originals?
The rear panels could be made to work by simply cutting two slots for the upper rear seat hanger mounts to fit through. This would make an effective firewall for people who needed it for racing purposes but also wanted to retain the back seat. What thickness of aluminum are these made out of?
Seems like they would work out ok with a seat. Just have to seal them off, and make them tight enough not to rattle.
This is thick enough to be used as a firewall for drag racing. Just seal them up tight and tech won't be a problem if using a trunk mounted fuel cell or a 70 Maverick drop in tank. If you use all the parts for behind the seats, you could fairly easily seal the trunk area off while really cleaning up the appearance of the back. And at the prices listed, a person would be hard pressed to do it for very much less. Bead rollers and the learning curve would eat up any material savings pretty fast.
i dont see why you couldnt even cover these with some thin padding and vinyl.the design he rolled into the panel would conform to the vinyl and make a couple nice lines right?
The 73 release handles are very convenient actually. My hand naturally falls there and I don't have to turn my hand sideways at an angle to pull it like I do in a 72 and back Mav/Comet. You know, since turning my hand is such an inconvenience and so difficult...nevermind LOL. Can these be had in diamondplate?
