Welcome Kent, hopefully one of the other members have the trim pieces you need. Yes post some pictures when you get a chance.

Welcome to C.O. Kent.
Glad you enjoyed your visit and scored a nice car. The unfortunate thing about 'B' body cars is there's not a big aftermarket supply of parts. The parts you are looking for are also the same as those found on the 67 Delta 88.

Looking forward to pics of your car.

Kent, the chrome trim you're looking for, is it like the car in this pic? Is there any chance the seller has the trim and can forward it to you?


If he doesn't have it, you might want to contact John McNeel (2blu442 on this site). He parts out a lot of older cars, and knows where to find the parts he doesn't have. Here is a direct link to his PM (private messaging) Send a PM to 2blu442

Both of the links in the following text take a bit of time to open, so be patient with their web servers...

First up is a link to the Fusick Automotive on line catalogue for B/C cars. It doesn't have a lot, but might have some things of interest. Clik here for the Fusick B/C on line catalogue

Second, USA Parts Supply seems to carry some of the older car parts - just in limited applications. Clik
here for their website.
