All of our Standard and Decor, 1967 and 1968 rear interior panels come naked without the horizontal basket weave strip. We often will leave a yellowed, peeling one in place when they ship but if they are in good shape we remove them and sell them separately. If you purchase a panel from us and want a grade C strip, just mention it in the comments section of your online order and we will include it for free.
Used passenger side (left hand) rear interior panel in red for the standard Mercury Cougar. Also, because of a weak spot in the mold, all used panels may have a minor hairline crack where the rear seat meets the package tray. Only very early 1967 Cougars came without arm rests on the rear interior panel. If you need the unit without the arm rest holes you will need to call for availability.
*NOTE* Keep in mind 69-70 rear armrests look better, last better and cost less than 1967-1968 rear armrests.
