I have a '68 Vista parts car, not sure if it would be the same but here is a photo. You decide...

Cruiser Bob

Thanks for trying,but not the same

Oldsguy

Yeah, I looked closer at my '72 and saw that there is no stainless peice along the back where the bumper line meets the reat quarter panel. Probably more differences as well.

Cruiser Bob

Still looking for one

Are you still looking for the trim piece?

Cruiser Bob

Yes the right rear wheel opening trim

thanks

OK, I'll dig through my parts and see what I can come up with. Over the years I know I've dismantled a couple rusty 70-72 Vista Cruisers. I'll see if I can locate the wheel well trim you need.

Cruiser Bob

Any luck finding one in your stash

Sorry, so far I'm striking out. I was hoping the wheel well trim was in the rafters with the other Visa Cruiser trim but it wasn't. I've got a stack of trim that I thought was all for the 2 door cars. But I may have mixed the Vista Cruiser parts in there. In case anyone else is looking for you I looked it up and found this trim piece is the same for the Vista Cruiser and Cutlass flat top wagons, 70-72. Part number 8702501 for the RH and 8702502 for the LH side.

Not to hi-jack this thread, but John, I could use the LH rear wheel opening trim and both pieces of the LH rear upper trim for my '71 VC if you come across any.

oldschool85

Do the VCs and the Custom Cruisers have the same trim? If so I might have what you are looking for. Can you PM me exactly what you two are looking for...

Cruiser Bob

Thanks to everyone that checked their parts stash, still on the hunt

Bob, sent you a PM

Sorry, I've struck out locating the parts I thought I had. Scott Winn, oldspackrat just got a 1970 Vista Cruiser parts car. John

I do have some vista cruiser rear wheel wheel pieces in stock. And I did acquire a driver's side rear today. I don't know if the other side is driver or passenger but I can check shortly. Call me? 317-727-7041

Did that vista not have a dual action tailgate?

oldspackrat

Rare single action only, but 3 seat, version.

Loaded68W34

Wow, I didn't even know that was a possible combination! Very cool.

Scott has more pictures on FB. The car was equipped with power windows so an interesting mix of options.

Cruiser Bob

Finally found one I can use from Scott Winn

Thanks
