Even if these pieces were made by Ford for Panoz (which I doubt) the OP here continuing to represent his parts as stamped from 1963 Ford Dies is still a scam.
EDIT - the raised rib in the bottom of the original front overrider pic you posted also made it look like a cast piece, but the edges do appear to show that they are stamped and cut.

In my opinion, the stamps on the pictured press die don't look professional to me and as been pointed out, the D series numbers would be from the 70's and after Cobra production.
