65 gmc window frame trim. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a gmc cab with trim that came with no doors and I got some good c10 doors for it. I’d like to get the gmc trim that goes around the doors window frame. ( have the cab sale pieces so I don’t need a full set): They are in a big u shape. Hopefully I can get clips and figure where to drill the holes in the c10 doors. Anyone know a source for this trim. I assume it’s not reproduced.

Did the gms's have the sale pieces? The ones I have seen have some chrome pieces that finish the loop and have a "custom" script in the middle.

forestb · 03-20-2020, 04:07 PM

Here are the ones I have on my chevy with no script

bigmoe · 03-20-2020, 04:32 PM

Yup just like that. I just need the door parts, but for a 64 and up.

sstock · 03-20-2020, 08:46 PM

Careful though forestb are for 63 and down models, 64-to 66 are different because of the door shape. So you can start looking on the 60-66 GMC forum, there was a set fore sale over there a couple months ago.

This is my 64, see the difference?

bigmoe · 03-20-2020, 09:26 PM

Mine is a 64, not a knee knocker.

bigmoe · 03-21-2020, 08:51 AM

The next challenge would be installing them on c10 doors. How do they mount?

forestb · 03-21-2020, 10:55 AM

They attach with bolts and clips that slide back and forth along the trim. So there is a little wiggle room. The clips are in the locations that you can’t reach from the back.

bigmoe · 03-21-2020, 11:07 AM

I wonder if you could 3m them? Lots of people are using 3m on the side trim.

vetnat · 03-22-2020, 11:56 PM

Bigmoe, PM me. I believe I may have the parts you need, right here in the land of the plummeting dollar! Off a 66 GMC.

vetnat · 03-23-2020, 12:42 AM

Sorry bigmoe. Only have the hoop piece for passenger door. I think I have the rest of the trim pieces from the cab for both sides, but it sounds like you do too.

See if this works to post pic. Truck is in first post.

When I dug out the window trim, I found it has a big crease in it. Must have happened in storage.

I’ve Seen Worst A Good Chrome Shop could Fix That

I think the crease is normal,
