Just purchased a 72 fastback and need roofrail weatherstrip. who supplies the best aftermarket ones ? Another question what is supposed to cover the inner fender well over the upper control arms it has what looks like a home brew cover definetly not oem ford. Been many years since the wife and I bought our first new car a 72 sport fastback Q code lazer stripe buckets console rally cluster. I am tired of shifting gears in my 66 Cyclone GT convertible and am gonna sell it for a little more comfort in the 72.

MAC's sells the rail weatherstrip... part number 42-75513 for the 72-76 Torino, 130.95 for the pair. 

The control arm inner fender covers are a weird looking material. They are black, but have another material speckled in with it, and an odd texture. Almost looks like roofing shingles, but thinner and more flexible. They do dry out and then crack apart over time.
