Post by: 5F08KGT on December 15, 2014, 07:12:53 AM

Is there a Ford Part Number on these?

Yes, the side moldings would have a C4ZB-76... engineering number cast into the bottom.

Thanks Again Charles!  I'm going to check mine......I think they are originals and if they are I will get them re-chromed........how are the repros, btw?

I have repros on my '65 convertible, and they're very nice.  The fit and finish are spot on.  I put them on back in 2007, and there's been no sign of pitting or deterioration in the chrome.  That being said, I hardly ever drive the convertible, so your experience may differ on a car that's driven more often.

My personal preference is NOS or re-chromed originals.  The fit and appearance is nicer than repro in my opinion.
