I've got this NOS trim piece for a Ford that I have been having difficulty identifying. It is in a very worn and tattered Ford Service Parts box. Where the part number would have been has completly deteriorated away and there are no other usable numbers on the box and none at all on the part. It is aluminum, about 1' long, and has a lip along one edge. So far my best guess is that this is some kind of exterior trim or it could be interior trim for a seat.
Anyone who knows Fords reconize this?

I'd say you're on the right track with "interior trim"- probably no earlier than mid 60's; no later than mid 70's.....I don't know, but I just wanted to say that that sure is a neat Eagle wagon in your avatar! 🙂

I don't think I'm meant to have one. Had 2 chances to purchase ones on CL over the last few years- and each time, weird circumstances on the seller's ends resulted in the deals never coming to fruition. Wish they made cars like that today, instead of these delicate, needlessly complex, expensive Rube Goldberg contraption AWD abominations!

Rocker panel molding.

I agree with atikovi; looks like rocker panel trim although I can't place the year and model.
Maybe some browsing through pics of old Fords would reveal the actual fit?
I also like those AMC Eagles. There's a guy in a small town about 10 miles from me who has 4 or 5 of those things sitting out back. Or at least they were there the last time I went by about 6 months ago.
Just letting them rot I guess. 😞

How often do you see ANY AMC product? These Eagles are probably the most common AMCs we're likely to see still around....which isn't saying much. Definitely the best thing AMC ever made. They finally got it right...then they went out of business!

Sweet! I would love a 1980 two door sedan!
I had this 83 with a 5-speed stick 25 years ago. Rode like a truck but no snow ever stopped it.
