if a clamshell, the upper hatch rots out from the inside out. Lift and shake to listen for rust crumbs.
My burb is from the soggy PNW, and this one leaks water into the vehicle from all the common places, and the wooden floor in back is all still in great shape, so it *shouldn't* be an issue in Cali.
67/68 trim... if you are talking the lower side moulding, will be pretty much impossible to locate. While the doors and fenders will be the same as the trucks... the rest will be VERY hard to locate.
