I see there was an article on the same subject for a 66 SD, can anyone provide me with details or a side profile picture of what the trim for a 67 SD would look like?

All I have is the sales brochure, and it is not very clear.

Thanks  

Mine was not painted black  

Thanks Carl,

Really REALLY nice convertible, so if I understand the side picture,  shows the car as it was original, and in your "owners" opinion the rocker trim was the same as chevelle without the black detail ?

Can these rockers trim be purchased ? Are the rally wheels the originals?

Sorry for the many questions, I am getting the same questions, and I don't know the answers or what was original .

Thanks

Dale

rallies were never original   always hub caps, or wheel cover, or wire covers...     The rockers are the same as Chevelle (I'm told as well)   heres the original covers

painted ones

Thanks, I appreciate your comments.

Now I am on the hunt for rocker trim.

I don't have any original caps or wire wheels, so I'll  leave my GM rallies on. A buddy of  mine picked up on the fact that they weren't even a GTO or a Pontiac rally wheel ( 5 versus 6 slots).. Hummmm,

Thanks again Carl

Thanks for the link, I guess my search is over, you guys are a wealth of knowledge.

         YOU  got that right     re have tons of info and lots of opinions   lol lol lol    

Double checked mine and there is faded blk in the grooves

Thanks AK 67SD,

I found the rocker trim pieces through Ecklers's , I'll figure out something regarding the black detail paint,

I also agree with the three side louvers, when I purchased mine they came in Chrome, and I installed them as such. An acquaintance of mine who actually owned both a 66 and a 67 SD back in the day is really beside himself saying that chrome louvers don't look right and that mine are not period correct. He had not much good to say about the Chrome louvers. I know  my car is not 100 %,  it is a Custom 2 Dr HT Sport Coup with the A51 option, right from GM Vintage Auto Records, so at least some of the car trim is correct. 

I can't believe, the amount of detail it is taking completing this project, another question for you guys , in your 67 SD 's are your window crank handles equipped with Chrome or Black knobs?  Based on my acquaintances recommendations,  I bought a new set of window cranks with Chrome knobs,  did I do right ?

Regards

Dale

 I had two blue  interior cars with blue knobs, a black interior car with black knobs, the red interior car was missing the handles

the rocker moldings on all of them were frost in the grooves rather than black like the Super Sport Chevelle I had

quarter panel louvers are supposed to be partial body color

mine blue on blue Andrew is right build it and enjoy it

Hey Carl, I noticed your 67SD didn't have chrome wheel well trim and the gills are all chrome instead of half painted? What's up with that? I thought all SD's received wheel well trim. Great look'n car!

          I didn't notice   lol    I had the car in 79 so it was 12 years old already    those photos were fresh paint    maybe they didn't put mouldings back on

 back in the day body shops were famous for ripping off the fender mouldings and NOT replacing them...

...this was mainly due to rust, remember these cars in the 60's/70's were also winter driven and the wheel wells

took a beating........a little bondo over the holes and new paint...........the SD definitely came new with mouldings
