Mystery Part

Post by unplugged »

Anyone recall what holds the lower front grill in place?

Also can anyone help me identify this part?

That looks like the piece that goes across you front header bow on your convertible top. as for the grill I think the was plastic clips that went in the holes. but I used some new metal ford clips
