Inner Fender Apron NOS

Administrator

Don't know that I've ever seen a NOS one.
Looks about the same as a used one to me though.

E0TZ 16054-A was apparently replaced by E2TZ-A and then by E4TZ-A if I read the notes correctly. And I can believe that as the MPC now show the latter.

But there were differences, as shown on our page Documentation/Underhood/Fender Aprons.

Wow, wish I could afford that. Both of mine are rotted. But that's steep for what this thing is. I'm not super concerned with being "original" so I'm thinking about just reinforcing the ones I have, if I can't find some in good condition at the junkyard.

Are we talking of the same parts?
That inner fender well is plastic so how could it rot, crack yes but rot?

Re: Inner Fender Apron NOS

the only way I can imagine that is heat. i have seen a few with exhaust leaks that made the area closest to the leak (usually close to the inner mount point where it mounts to the bracket coming forward from the firewall). that and possibly headers.

Run a straight six and heat is no where near them

With a v8 is the exh that close to the inner fender well?
I just dont think I have seen them go bad unless there was heat from a fire.

According to NumberDummy in 2014:

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

Re: Inner Fender Apron NOS

not referring to general exhaust heat but more from an exhaust leak or headers as headers radiate far more than cast iron manifolds. and that is the reason for header wrap.
