    According to the part number those are ventshades for a '65'-'66 full size Ford.
    Pretty rare to find a new set in the box.

    Thank you for the reply. The seller told me that they are compatible with generation 5 (65-68) wagons so I jumped at the opportunity to own a set (new in box) witht eh hopes they will fit my car. If not, I will re-list on eBay. I had been looking for a set for a while.

    They might not fit 'exact' in the back doors and quarter window areas. The '67 has a bit more of an upkick styling line in that area than the '65/'66...

    The lower glass portion is definitely different with the body lines of the 66 & 67 differing. The upper sections look to be similar although it is difficult to tell. I've got my fingers crossed.

    The ventshades have arrived and appear to be a perfect fit! I have recently replaced the window felt on the front windows but haven't gotten to the rear windows yet. (The passenger rear rattles pretty good whenever I hit a good bump or pothole) I ordered additional felt to complete the rear windows before installing the shades.
    I am ecstatic with the condition (NOS) of the shades as they were packaged in the original box with all hardware and directions.
