This is a scanned page from a Ford Car Parts catalog, Exterior Moulding Illustration Section B (illustration P-8335), showing an exploded parts diagram of the factory tonneau cover and related parts for 1971/72 Torino body types 66 and 97 (the pickup/Ranchero body styles). The illustration depicts the tonneau cover panel itself (part group 501A34) positioned above a Ranchero-style pickup bed, along with its mounting hardware: retainer/rail pieces and a grommet identified as 18A400, a latch fastener 95496-S, and associated screws marked with a % symbol. Footnotes explain the servicing scheme: parts marked with a solid square (■) are serviced only in kit Group 501A42, which includes a storage bag, while parts marked with % are also supplied in that same kit. A reader can learn the correct Ford part group numbers for ordering or identifying the factory tonneau cover assembly, its attaching retainers and hardware, and that the complete assembly is serviced as kit Group 501A42.
