[71CHEVYSHORTBED402]

From what I see Leonard, your door to bed molding is dead-on. Don't often see that on less than a rebuild, I take it the cab mounts were replaced?

Not to hijack this thread, but if anyone has precise measurements for each end of each piece, that would be very much appreciated. One side only of course, but tail would be a bonus. I can get by with the horizontal measurements only (e.g., front edge of door to hole is........). The height seems pretty straight forward, even without GMs reference points.

GM provides the measurements, but the reference points are a mystery. The truck I'm building never had the moldings, but will.

On a side, GMs assembly manual is more or less a guide. First, there's no substitute for a good eye test. That's the obvious............. Second, with at least some of the factory hardware packages that came with the moldings, they used a lot of 3M stick-on clips. In other terms, you don't have to drill so many holes. Seems I read this change occurred 71-72. That said, wouldn't surprise me if the difference is "replacement parts", sometime after 1972.
