Looks like a rear bumper w/ custom center exhaust exits. Maybe a bumper that's been dechromed?

I think it's a rear rollpan with places for exhaust outlets.

Really looks like a middle 60's falcon, but the dpmcc doesnt show that.

Now I'm stumped. Aint a Falcon, nor a Galaxie. That leaves a Fairlane, but I cant find anything like this. Looks very FoMoCo, am I on the right track?

You're on the right track , , but don't bother looking in the Drastic Plastic instruction sheet site, they don't have this one.

But, yea, just a notch bigger than a Falcon and a notch smaller than a Galaxie.

There ya go Bob. It was in the Cobra convertable/notchback hardtop annual [guess no one got the "notch" hint]

It's the custom front pan. The holes are for driving lights.

Your go Bob.

I totally missed the "notch" hint! :lol: I thought you meant "a smidge" bigger than a Falcon.

Actually I was looking at Torinos as being bigger than a Falcon too ! That was just a wild guess .
