Default '70 Chevelle 4-Door - Need help finding window trim/molding (pics inside)

Hey everyone!


I just picked up a 70 Chevelle 4 door yesterday. Only problem is, the driver's side window trim/molding that attaches to the rear door window and covers the gap between the front and rear door window is missing, and I cannot find where to get one. I was hoping someone here might have an idea or has/had a Chevelle. Here are some pics.



Passenger side - this is what I need for the D/S:






Driver's side - where it's completely gone






Anyone know where I can get one? Or even of a junkyard/parts car I can snag one?

Thanks!

Wow, a4door hardtop! Thats going to be tough. I think I could find parts for a sedan, but the hardtops are few and far between. Just a thought, have you looked inside the door in case it fell off when the window was rolled up? Could be lying at the bottom of it.

I found ONE on ebay for the side I needed, and I ordered it immediately. My luck, it's in the door LOL. I'm gonna go look and tell you if I need to kick myself in the ***.

Thanks man!

Well, now you have a spare! Got any pics of the whole car? Looks like a nice low mileage car from the condition of the front seat, and I'm a sucker for green on green...

Luckily I was able to cancel the order in time and get my money back. I'll just have to use some 3M adhesive or something and reattach it to the glass.

I haven't really taken pics of it yet, but I have one good one! It's got 87k miles, all original 307, everything on the car works.


Here it is with my Camaro.





I'll probably have more pics later today. I'm almost done refinishing the wheels, then it'll be back on the ground.
