These came with a 65 Lemans parts car, any idea as to what they are? Thanks!

Looks like they would be filler pieces for each side of a radiator to keep air from going around the radiator. But I don't know what year or model.

Agree with above

They do look like that, but I kind of remember them being bolted to the trunk or passenger compartment floor area, maybe protecting wiring? I don't know, it was a long time ago.

I've had a 65 down to the last niut an bolt an don't remember those pieces.

If the car has reverse lights in the bumper, they could be shielding in that area. I vaguely remember those on my '65 when I had the rear bumper off. I could be wrong....been years.

Not '65 BU light Shields...

I must be wrong about them being from a 65.

Is the car a convertible?? Could be the tack strip ends lh and rh...

"Bill"!

Hey Jeff I need to install a missing shield for my 65; what metal prep should these pieces have?

Thanks!
