Jeff.......Mark and I have been talkin on the phone about this. When I bought it, it was listed as a 1974 GMC Jimmy upper moulding. It has a "made in canada" sticker on it. measurements are 49 9/16 (full length) and 48 13/16 from the "drop beveled" spots. 7 studs on the rear for the attaching nuts.

I don't know if this will make any difference, but I know a guy who has a 1966 convertible malibu that was made in canada. Same car,just small subtle differences for some reason.

This moulding looks like what is used in these spots on the trucks.....Now I'm just wondering if it might be a bottom. Mark was going to measure one on a truck and let me know. Maybe if you have one sitting there you could do the same to clear up any confusion.......
