1965 Delta 88 coupe LH Driver rear quarter trim (before tire)

I have all NOS except the driver side rear quarter trim (after door, before wheel) and the driver door. Need those last two pieces.

Yes, a pic or two would be nice. That price is fair.

Slight scuffs in the black area. Chrome is excellent and studs are there. Shipping will be an issue as it’s going to get hammered on oversize AND it’s heavy.

You have a deal at 245 due to the scratches in the paint. I will need to fix that and it is not easy. That plus shipping. I am at 104 Hermitage Circle, Ligonier Pa 15658. If this is okay with you, i will happily send payment via Paypal. All the best.

I understand shipping is going to cost some coin. bubble wrap it, but it in a sturdy box, and the cost is the cost.

Btw, I am also looking for 65-66 GM full size convertible interior windshield mouldings. 67 might be good as well but for sure 65-66. This would be any full size car - Wildcat, Impala, Starfire, Jetstar 88, Dynamic 88...In particular, the two sections on the top that straddle the rear view mirror. I am planning of having them plated over the winter but it I could get NOS at less I would the thrilled. I do not need any exterior mouldings and my pillar posts are fine.

I don’t want to butt in, but if you’re looking to protect the studs, one good way is multi-layer corrugated cardboard.

If you can get 4 or 5 ply piece, you cut a piece of equal length to the diecast trim piece and wide enough to protect the studs (say 1-3”).

Turn the cardboard on its side, to expose the corrugation voids and stick the studs down into the corrugation voids. Then bubble wrap and ship.

I just went through lots of my diecast chrome trim and this was the best protection method I saw.

Tell you what. If ur not in a hurry, I will be going to Hershey for the AACA show in early October coming from IL. I use the 70/76 turnpike. This is the only one I have so if it gets damaged it’s screwed. Prefer a handoff so shippers CANT Jack it up. For $275 I will bring it to within spitting distance if you want to meet along the route no extra cost. My hunch is to pack it right, it’s well over $75.

Only the top two. They are normally chromed or stainless, not black.

Also, If you have anybody you know that might have that last piece of quarter trim..... let me know. Due to the nature of these it is hard to just rechrome them. NOS is by far the easy way. I have spent a fair amount gathering all of them but it is worth it compared to having them plated then trying to match the paint.
