Thank you for your idea!

I ordered a long bed piece for the truck about a year ago to see if it would work on my Suburban.
It would certainly be better than having a missing piece of trim, and could pass as reasonable in many situations. But it has less curve at the end than the proper Suburban one, and it has a slightly different finishing angle on the back.
In general I think it is still a good back up plan, but am really hoping to find a couple of nice Suburban pieces still.
There weren't a lot of 67/68 Suburbans with the side trim to begin with, and then on top of that a lot of the Suburbans get dings and dents in the rear from backing into things because they are so big. So it is likely that a good portion of the rear side trim pieces were damaged over the years.

Mar-k USA was the only company making these parts up until they shut down. It sounds like someone new has bought them now and am really hoping they will start producing these trim pieces again soon. We will see.

In the meantime I am happy to pay well for the proper Suburban rear pieces in good shape........if they still exist somewhere out there!

Thanks again for your reply,
Scot
