I need help! I am trying to figure out why this U14 1966 half cab has rounded quarters with original factory lip?? Quarters has not been changed. Let me know!

Not possible. Maybe a body man rolled the edge in a cosmetically appealing way. But they came from the factory uncut; some dealers cut the rear before sale. Buy it already!!!

I can't see the lip, but it didn't come from the factory that way!

Here's the photos. There is no way this could have been rolled because of where that ridge comes back through that quarter it would have been cut and welded, there is no weld and no cuts been done. Also, if you will look this is wider at each end of the quarter for strength, look at your Bronco at the quarters and notice how narrow and compare the difference. You have to see this to know what I am talking about, it is for real.

Here you can clearly see the original body line/fender lip that has been hammered flat.
