Side trim

My truck is out for paint now and I'm thinking about replacing the aluminum side trim on my 77. Anyone have experience with the aftermarket trim from Classic Parts, LMC or Classic Industries?

Re: Side trim

I believe 77 was the only year that the side trim had the yellow stripe inside it.(may be wrong about this) It is really rare to find good stuff.

Re: Side trim

Yes... Mine was yellow but was repainted black many years ago. The truck is Black with red interior so I'm going to stay away from the yellow.

Re: Side trim

Dave and Cory, '75 Gentleman Jims had the yellow trim as well

Otherwise it was 77 only.

Re: Side trim

They are good companies to deal with, HOWEVER, when you open the package and it says "CORVEX" send it back, it's JUNK. 3 differentent makes of cars, different sets of trim, all JUNK. Good luck, Ron
