I've been assigned the task of finding rear quarter panel reflectors for a 67 fastback we're restoring. I've done some looking around and I haven't been able to find them. 68's were lighted, but 67's were just reflectors. Any help would be appreciated.

I think you're a bit confused, or maybe I've misunderstood.
67s had no reflectors or lights on the rear quarters. 68s sold in the US had reflectors, with two designs. Before February (?) they were rectangular. After that, they had angled corners.
I discovered that Stangs sold in the Philippines in 68 had actual lights behind those reflectors.
I think you're looking for something that was never on your car.

You're right. The 67's had no reflectors. It is a 68 that I need help with. Hehe..I need to go to bed.

So what kind are you looking for? The early ones had a depression in the ? and the bezels were painted and the later ones had the chrome bezel that mounted flush on a smooth surface. You can also find the later ones on Cougars and Cyclones.

I believe he's just looking for the reflectors without the chrome. Any suggestions?

Is there a shallow rectangular depression in the ? where it goes or just two holes? I just thought of something, has the ? been replaced or a skin installed on it?

I'll take a look at the reflector the next time I go over there. I know he's got it installed on the driver side, but we're looking for the passenger side reflector. As far as the quarter panel, I don't know but will find out.
