    Does anyone know a website that sells rear and front window chrome trim for a '71 maverick?

    Right now i am in the process of doing a paint job on my maverick of which i had to take the vinyl top off. In order to get all the vinyl off i had to take off the chrome trim. I didnt get a good enough look at the trim but i may have bent or done something i shouldnt have while taking it off. I was being stupid and a little rough while taking off the trim. In any case i really hope i didnt bend or dent any of the trim. Plus i here its hard to get new trim for it.

    So does anyone know a website that sells chrome trim for a maverick?

    thanks.

    Oh yeah, if blugene starts getting on your nerves let me know. Sometimes we can't get him to shutup once he gets started. We have to sick the dogs on him. :cry:

    j/k Gene's okay...he just owns a Comet...that's all. :rolleyes:

    as with most Mav/Comets...the parts you take off, are the ones you will be putting back on. :yup:

    The back window trim is so much fun, just be careful it's really soft stuff.

    Right...and make sure you have the right clips. If you don't, you will destroy the moldings when you try to get them popped on.

    so i fixed the trim today. I bent it all back into shape. All i have to do now is wait for the guy to come and take the front and rear window out so i can continue sanding.
