    Anyone know how to remove the chrome around the rear wing windows on a 71 maverick?
    They are shapped like hockey sticks, I removed the one screw that holds them on and tried to gently pry them off but no luck...
    The donor car has a set that are perfect and I would like to keep them like that.
    Any help would be great... Maybe some pictures of this chrome off would help.

    There is a stud with a nut that goes down into the quarter panel. It is kinda hidden - but you can get at it by reaching way up through the trunk with a nut driver. 1 screw - 1 nut on the stud - and it will lift right out.
