    I've never seen bolted on panels. They are all welded from the factory.

    Oh, and there are no reproduction core supports or fender aprons.

    Wow ... never ever seen a bolted in radiator support on a Maverick ... they were defintely spot welded at the factory ... I know because I've air chiseled one off.

    There are bolts on the fender aprons but they are used to bolt on the coil spring outer cover inside your fender. The fender aprons are welded in as well ...
