    hello, I am sure others have asked this question before. I am looking to replace the first 6 inches of my outer wheel houses on my 70 maverick. I just need the lip area that attaches to the quarter panels and then about 6 inches into the actual wheel houses. I would think there is some years of mustang outers that can be used. I would like to hear from people who have actually used mustang outers as far as year and thoughts on fit. I have new quarters on car already and I will be doing this with quarters installed. also looking for what drop offs people have used. im replacing bad body work. thank you

    I have used Mustang rear lower outer wheel well repair panels. This is the area directly behind the rear tires.

    Trunk drop-off are made for a Maverick and available new.

    Years ago nothing was available so mine were custom made by a body shop. Charged me $500 to make and install.

    I recall it was the early Mustang. Like 1965 through 1968 maybe?

    The drop off panels were available through all the normal Maverick parts vendors
