more part numbers to look up

i have 2 numbers. i am sure they are a left and right.

9713132
9713133

i have no group number but they are the fuzzes for the window. i have a complete set for the interior of a car but they are not in packages and don't have part numbers on them. there was this paper that was with them and i think they are the part number to the front set or back set. thanks for any help you can give me.

You betcha! Pretty awesome Stuff, thanks Kurt.

Side question,

What do we mean when we say "post" car? I know there's Hardtop Coupe, Sports Coupe. And now there's a post?

I'm confused..

Hdtp is obvious - no post.
Sports Coupe - has chrome around the window frames and post.
Post Coupe - is a sedan with paint around the window frames and post.
[At least that's how I understand it!]

Um, almost, but not quite.

A "Post" car is a generic term for a 2-door car that that has a body pillar between the door window and the back seat window. It also has a full frame around the door window. AKA a 2-door sedan.
A "hardtop" is a generic term for a 2 or 4-door car that does not have that body pillar.
"Coupe" gets lost in the terminology because some coupes are post cars and some are hardtops. So a "coupe" is basically just not a convertible.

Now "Sports Coupe" (for Oldsmobile, at least) is a *model* name. The Sports Coupe is usually a more deluxe version of the post car, with the "Club Coupe" models being more basic. But what the exact name the models are called vary some over the years.

And always remember, the more metal you see, the lighter the car. Post cars are lightest, with the hardtops being the next heaviest, with convertibles weighting the most!

Great! Thanks for the info.

So i'm guessing my 72 is definitely NOT a post car since the front door glass has no metal around it. I honestly like the look alot better, but that's just personal preference.
