68-69 Convertible Peak Trim

Complete "late" 68 or 69 convertible peak moulding set. The rear end of one of the 1/4 panel pieces has had dents repaired. I have more pics if anyone is interested. The rest are typical of 40 year old pieces. $375 for the set. I’ll sell individual pieces if I get enough interest. ("late" 68 because the one piece fender trim was a late change noted in the 68 assembly manual).

I travel quite a bit in the Northeast and if we can work it out I'll deliver it for free. I'll ship them too however the rear 1/4 trim is very long and fragile and therefore very expensive to ship.

That's a good price for a whole set.

Just an FYI, I shipped 2 rear 1/4 pieces using a big heavy duty cardboard tube from a carpet roll. I cut part of the tube an angled it so it looked kinda like a hockey stick. Taped the heck out of it & bubble wrapped the trim. It made it cross country just fine.....

Thanks, I was thinking a 6" PVC pipe. I had UPS destroy a dash pad once that I made a plywood box for. Fortunately I took pics of the packaging before I sent it so they paid the insurance. I'll look into getting a tube because I think whatever happens I'll end up having to ship these to someone.

Hi,

Interested in these, could you send some close ups of the rear quarter pieces.

Thanks, Tony K.

Hi Mike,

The trim arrived today in great shape thanks to your 4" PVC packing container.

Thanks again,

Tony

Thanks Tony.

For anyone shipping these long trim pieces I'd suggest making a tube out of 4" PVC and installing 22.5 or 45 degree fittings where the bends are. It worked great and keeps the width of the packing to a minimum. I was able to ship this from NY to Colorado for about $55 including the cost of the PVC.

I have gotten quotes in the past for over $100 just for the shipping
