Hey 369coupes Saw your wanted fastback right after I read this on VMF. Kinda sounds like the guy is looking to flip it if it's worth it.

thanks for the heads up if only the guy said where he lives i gave 200.00 for a rusty shell that really wasnt worth dragging home hence the 1/2 fastback listed in my signature

Hey, I just put on my moulding with no problems using the mounting hardware that came with it.. The hardware were little spring clips. Basically a flat peice that had a small spring arm sticking up from it. You mount it with a nut through the nood and then first place the spring arm into the upper piece of the moulding and kind of push down and wrap it around so that the bottom of the moulding grabs onto the little plate. and its on..
