it is the same contour as 68 sd side trim but not the same length by any means-you will have to have it cut and have it formed and then weld the ends,then have it OEM bright coated

In 1966 the Impala was the best selling car in North America. Many have been crushed but they made approximately 750,000 of them. Meanwhile they made less than 800 of the SD396 across both body styles. It might be worthwhile to take on some moldings for the cause, then get them re-anodized after the trimming and modifications.
