I also found a couple leftover rivets from the track felt. So I modified them to work on the ash tray.

I used a cupped set screw to set the head of the rivet on while peening, works great.

Oh your interior is blue...
What colour is your vinyl inside?
Feel free to send me a photo of your interior!

Thanks to Justin I was able to locate where these go, used for the rear top of vent frame.View attachment 773257

I need a set of these!

 

[69 GTX]

So I thought I'd get the trim laid out for the vinyl top. So first I had to back track a little to get the end drop rail piece in. I put new 1/4s on so that screw hole needed put in.

 

[69 GTX]

I got the rear window trim out and laid it in place. The put some tape down, so I can trace around the trim when I get it where I want it.

 

[69 GTX]

I could tell where the clips were by the rust stain on the inside. I marked it, then transferred it onto the tape.

 

[69 GTX]

When I went to the other side that piece didn't fit the same as the drivers side. One is a little thicker and longer than the other. Hmmmm

 

[69 GTX]

Sooooo I'm going to have to find a matched set. FYI one measured 21" and the other 21.75

 

[69 GTX]

So Eldubb440 solved my trim mystery. The longer piece is a Dodge piece. So if any of you have a extra a extra drivers side trim piece for the rear quarter I'm in the market.
Many thanks ElDubb

I'm 99.9% those dodge pieces I have are repop, and they are very nice......... you might want to look into a set

if you're going for the aged look, they are pretty easy to find.......unless I hid them somewhere

 

[69 GTX]

I'll be on the buffing wheel soon do all the trim.

 

[eldubb440]

I was thinking they were anodized......... duh

they are bare stainless steel. I have a pair and a single. I will look and see if the single is a LH.

 

[Snook]

Great job! You're afflicted like me.

I probably could of saved myself a pile of $ by making my GTX a RR!

Was your tail panel pitted at all or pretty good original shape?

 

[69 GTX]

It was pitted pretty good. I was pretty happy with his work. Had to do a little work on the paint edges. And he didn't remove the pits from where the red stripe goes.
