    Hey guys! I'm looking for some OEM Ford/Mercury skirts like those in this picture. Notice that they are flush and have a lip, not rolled under like most. Can anybody help me? Thanks!

    Nope. Look closely. These are different than any of the aftermarket skirts offered today. These are much narrower and have no edge in the front, only in the rear. The lip follows the body line, not below it.

    I've added another photo which shows the details better, and made 'em both bigger.

    Thanks very much for trying, CCR. I appreciate your efforts. :)

    Yes, RB, I don't know what they are either, but I now think they may be aftermarket, not OEM. It doesn't really matter, I like the way they look and should be perfect for my Victoria.

    I am pretty sure that car in the picture belongs to John Strobeck past president of 1954ford.com from Tucson,visit the website should be other pics of this car there and you may find where He got them,rustyfords here also moderates that site maybe pm Him for info.

    They are factory skirts...I had a set and sold them and bought a larger set for mine. I got around $150 out of them, they are out there.
