Does anyone have a "better way" to fasten flush mounted fender skirts to a '55 that has never had them before?

Better than what?  I know Tee-Bird prods sells full kits with the mounting brackets that go onto the body as well as the skirts, etc.  I havent used the kits, though, since i dont have skirts (neither does my car...ba-dum-dum)

Hello Ron! I believe there are 2 different mounting kits for these depending on if they are original Ford or aftermarket.There was a listing on Ebay for a "pair" but the method of mounting was different on each one.Not really a "pair".

Thanks, I know they have kits and I may even have one hidden around here someplace just thought someone would have come up with a different idea using something unrelated. Remember when I was sixteen glued razor blades to inside lower lip of skirts on my Dad's '54 Ford to keep them from being stolen...only saw bloody finger prints once. If I tried that today...wonder how many years I would be sent to prison.

Thanks for the help now I'll go look in garage for brackets.

Ron, I don't know if this will help because I have the long "cruiser skirts". After almost having

one come completle off going down the highway I decided I needed a better way to hold them

than the "plier type" clamp so I use small "C" screw clamps that I got at a local hardware store

and just clamped them down  in a couple of places. Its been a couple of years and no problem

and I just check every so often to make sure theyre still tight. Just hope I don't have a flat.

Good Luck
