I found these pieces in the box of spare parts that I got with
my 57 Custom 300. Maybe my mind is going, but, I swear I do not see
where these things go. Im starting to think that they dont go on my car.
Can anyone tell me what these are?
Thanks, Roger
Could be off a UFO...do you live anywhere near Roswell?
Don't have those on my Ranchero, but don't throw them. They'll turnout to go somewhere.
I'll take a stab at it. They look like the 1958 Edsel wagon tailight filler panels. So you could use Edsel wagon tailights in a 57 Ford.

They do go to your car. They are for the quarter window felt tracks. See the pic's. They were missing in 57 Again's car. we managed to get a set from Bud Kolar for an arm and both legs!!!

Take a look at the bottom of tailight, so it could blend into a 57 Ford quarter. The Edsel molding covers up the holes.
Rick...I don't think the part you're showing is the same part chero is showing. His apear to have chrome and a different shape, but now you've got me curious about the parts you do have, or where able to find. I don't remember taking those off my car...now I'll have to look thru my bags of parts. I won't need them anyway with the 70D conversion I'm doing.
rmk nailed it.
Thanks, RMK , thats it. they match the body lines perfectly!
Looks like someone was going to put edsel tail lights on my car at one time.
Thanks to all who responded and took their time to help me out.

I've seen a couple Rancheros (Edchero) with this conversion and it doesnt look to bad.
