69volunteer 84 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 Take a look at the pic below. Is this rocker molding off of a 69? Looking at pics online and in the catalogs, it looks like from a 68? This has been on the car since I can remember so I was going to put them back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoneWolf2U 136 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 Looks like 69, the 68 used differant type of body clips. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 90 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 Looks different than what came on my 69 vert. Mine was not that wide and was the original trim. What body style is your car? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuckeyeDemon 211 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 that looks different as compared to my 69 mach 1. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
69volunteer 84 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 Its a fastback. The molding is a good 4 inches wide (roughly). Seems like what I have seen for a 69 is thinner. This covers most of the rocker panel on the car wheel to wheel. I have the clips and everything and am going to attempt to polish them out but I was considering trying to find some repops if they are cheap enough.

harlan69mach 21 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 The trim on our Mach 1 is more of a triangle shape when viewed from the end, not flat like your picture. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was there another trim option that would have included this wider molding? Was that thinner, spear like molding Mach 1 only? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flanders 47 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 I've got a skinny one on my '69 GT fastback. Never seen a fat one like that on a '69. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Conway 264 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 Not a 69. Looks to be a 67. Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1969vert 55 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 I had a set on a 1970 (look at my pictures)... You can see the molding..I think some cougars came with the same molding also..someone could have changed them out or it could have been a late produced car with some 70 stuff on it..

Interesting that you say that. I need to refresh my memory on the build date of this car. It also has bolt in windows. My aunt bought it in 1970 and someone backed into her driver door early 70s. I wasnt surprised to see the driver door with bolt in glass but was to see the passenger side. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Max Power 74 Report post Posted August 13, 2013 I believe the wider ones like that came on earlier models, Cougars, and in 1970, Grandes had them with a black insert. Those were a beast to find. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
