newstang 388 Report post Posted December 4, 2018 ok guys, what the heck is this for? it looks like a drain section under the quarters that just dumps it into the trunk? Im assuming they are not made and Ill have to make my own? ( the car is upside down on the rotisserie ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RPM 1,190 Report post Posted December 4, 2018 The triangle piece? If so, looks to be a reinforcement to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ridge Runner 1,113 Report post Posted December 4, 2018 Looks like a brace ,the drip rail is the channel that runs all the way around the quarter and the trunk divider and it does dump into the quarter . This piece is not made ...well it is but Dynacorn will not sell it seperat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newstang 388 Report post Posted December 6, 2018 well, just unboxed the full quarter and noticed it comes without the tail light corner and trunk corner. I've been looking on all my sources but I do not see it made. I really don't want to try to fabricate this crap as I have way too much to do. Does anybody have an Idea where I can get a fresh set?

RogerC 136 Report post Posted December 6, 2018 They are not reproduced for hardtops & verts. Have to find good used or make own. I had to repair the lower part of the left one on mine. Sorry, no finished pics at this time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted December 7, 2018 Maybe a 67-68 would work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newstang 388 Report post Posted December 7, 2018 fasback is different, im not sure about 68. I have nothing at all to work with , here is whats left. I guess anything at this point would be better than what i have. I just cant believe these clowns have not made these for these cars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newstang 388 Report post Posted December 9, 2018 Having no luck with the tail parts. If any of you Western-ers have them I would gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today. ( if your younger than 50-ish disregard that statement ) Anywho, got some stuff done, and really need those parts. Tried making them and cant get it quite right cause i have nothing to compare it to. I made flats then pounded them on a leather bag, which of course cut open and got sand everywhere, POS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike65 475 Report post Posted December 10, 2018 Try contacting James at www.usedmustangparts.net @ Blue Ridge Mustang Classic Mustang to see if he has a 69 Coupe he could cut it off of. He is in Va. & I have dealt with him for parts for my Coupe before. I have also purchased sheet metal pieces from Troy on VMF, he is usually selling parts in the 69/70 parts for sale section there & goes by the profile title of 4280, he is in Oregon.

newstang 388 Report post Posted December 14, 2018 Trying to pretty it up under there now. I also moved the trans support 2" further back for the 4R70w transmission. If it lines up fine, if not, i have steel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newstang 388 Report post Posted December 27, 2018 hey, I learned something new today, I guess the coupe and vert have different quarter extensions, on the vert it comes more to a point on top. the coupe is more rounded from what i noticed. the coupe is the yellow car in pic I was going nuts trying to figure out what i was doing wrong trying to get the corners fitted. turns out it aint me :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah, so aside from the tail panels on the 70 the corners are different too. I thought they were the same. oh well, we'll make it fit. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
