Are these appropriate to a 66? If so, how do they go back on? I suspect the flat part goes toward the top and gets tucked under the upholstery?
Mission accomplished. I'm good. (This was the only way that made sense to me. Later verified by photos of 66s for sale found online.)
Nice one
A different interpretation on hinge cover methodology. Lol!
Does the top get tucked UNDER the upholstery or OVER???
Steve
Over from what I can tell of the photos I researched extensively online.
Not tucked. See photo below lifted from the blue Hertz now for sale on BaT. And from all reasonable inferences drawn therefrom, I suspect the Ford factory was hurried to get these cars out the door and to market, therefore any effort to tuck the cap under the material would be lost time in the assembly process multiplied times a million which would not be tolerated. Besides, it looks like it was made to go over the material, not under, just by virtue of the design.
Will confirm that in pictures of unrestored 66 San Jose cars that they are installed untucked/over as shown in a few pictures I included below
A few other colors for the interior to improve the contrast
