    my neighbor did mine and it came out pretty good but cant really tell what it looks like under the material.

    the parts I would like to see reproduced are 1/4 window seals (I know someone here makes them forgot who) and the comet grill deluxe gas cap ldo seat tracks sport mirrors (I know they make some cool mirrors that look like sport mirrors but theyre EXPENSIVE and theyre a bit different)

    Rusty makes the Quarter Window Seals...and I would rather have Rusty's...on this particular item, then a mass, or short run repopped one.

    His are Super Nice, and yes...I bought a set when he first created them: (if anyone needs these...here's his order link: )

    I had approached Just dashes about this, and they provided an answer to the effect that they couldn't possibly give a group buy/discount because they treat everyone on an individual basis to be able to better serve them and provide them with a superior product. I tossed that e-mail in the garbage, especially after the lack-luster reviews seen here. My quote from them for my dash pad was $450 plus shipping both ways.

    I have been doing some research on what works with our cars, and what doesnt from repo parts for Mustangs, Cougars etc.

    This is a small section of the list that I have compiled, more to come soon. I am attempting to work with some of the larger retailers for Mustangs to include the "maverick" to the list of compatible parts.


    eh, the copy and paste isnt working very well.

    The '67 Mustang armrest looks nothing like my '74 Maverick armrest. You might want to put what year Maverick parts swap out with Mustang parts. We all know that Maverick parts changed year to year. What fits a 73 Maverick may not fit a 74 Maverick.

    Do you know for sure the wiper transmission linkage the same? The Ford Master Parts Catalog is showing the Maverick part number being D0DZ and the Mustang being a C7ZZ number.
