Title: rocker moldings
Post by: rockymountaincustom on 2009-08-11 18:39
I have seen a few cars with a chrome or stainless molding running along the rockers and ending up on the front fender. does anyone reproduce these pieces or any one have a set they would like to sell?

I thought I saw these 'hockey stick' moldings (repops) in the Dennis Carpenter catalogue...but I could be wrong. Big $$$.

For anybody thats interested , I contacted Burtons antique auto parts and they have completed the tooling for the gold side trim and said its a perfect match to the original they hope to start production in a few weeks.

The rocker moulding were never really popular here in the Northeast because they trapped sand and water. But for a car only driven on clear days or in a dry climate that wouldn't be a problem.

I have a complete set (less the clips) in good shape... no rust.  I can't use them cause I had front fender work done and the piece that attaches to the bottom of the fender no longer fits.  yes, they command a high price, at least in my book, but I believe I would entertain offers if anyone wants to shoot me one.  I am in the Houston,TX area.

thanks,Mark
