67-68 Side trim? does it fit

the sides of the 71? body lines..?

I like this stainless trim better than the 71 type..
but not sure if the 67-68 lines up correctly, I understand It might need some holes drilled to mount the clips.. but as far as body lines, is it a no go or good to go..

Thanks

Body lines are the same from 67 up to 72.

The 67-68 trim will look great on a 71.

Re: 67-68 Side trim? does it fit

Nice photo's of nice trucks..
Mine needs a ton of work to be even close to that nice..
Mine has no trim.. But while going through the Brothers catalog looking for things to check mark as the wife asked what I'd like for X-mas..
I saw that trim on the side . and was man that looks killer.. The trim will not be marked off,, as it cost to much for an x-mas gift..


Thanks again..

You can look for it used here in the parts for sale area. I bought a very nice driver quality set for $300 complete. Had to tap out some dings, polish it and pinstripe it but well worth it. Also keep in mind you can buy/use long bed pieces on a short bed. Just have to cut down the horizontal pieces on the bed. The only holes I drill to attach mine are the 5 screws inside the wheel arch. Just use 3M automotive grade double stick tape to attach the other pieces. Especially if you think you might take it back off or change to a different trim style.
