I need the trim that is missing on this truck . It came this way but I want to finish out the trim . If you have any or all of it in new or near new condition , please post pics and price including shipping to Caldwell , Tx 77836 .

I also need a grille bowtie emblem for this 78 Cheyenne .

Frank what color is the 78 bowtie? I'll keep an eye out for one.

Maybe Tony over at texassquarebodies has it. From the looks of those pics that N2TRUX posted after he went there, looked like he has a little of everything related to our trucks.

Tony has it in original used stuff, but he is looking for NOS. Frank I checked my stash, and I don't have any duplicates in the lower trim.

Ken ,thanks for looking . I do not know exactly what color the 78 bowtie is since the grille in the tan truck is from a 77 . I had it laying around and didnt like the tubular grille that was in it when I bought the truck . I think it should be the golden yellow transparent color like the 77 .

Mckpaul , I do want nos trim since the trim on this truck is real nice . I would take used trim in similar condition . I have considered buying a complete set of aftermarket trim but have heard that it doesnt alays fit correctly .

That is correct. I pulled my sales brochures and it has the same one as the 77. Does anyone make a reproduction? I will keep a watch for an NOS one.

I missed an NOS one on ebay a little while back and havent had the opportunity to buy one again . Should have bid early and often . Frank

Yep, read right past the NOS part in the title like it wasn't even there. Had pm's going with Tony about some parts for mine right before I mentioned that, so I had his place in mine.

I had a 77 once. If I remember correctly, there was something different about either that year or the Silverado that year, I think my molding had that amber/gold color stripe in it.
