WTB: Pass Rocker Mldg, '71-'72 Centurion/LeSabre.

[SBRMD]

Looking for a nice straight one; mine is munched.

I don't think 1973 will work.

Any leads appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

1971 LeSabre.

A resounding silence...

Anybody?

I'll keep an eye out, always searching on evil bay.

I bookmarked it and e-mail the seller, haven't heard back.

Dissappointingly, I just attempted to purchase one from Wheatbelt, who assured me it was the right one and showed me a picture of the '71 Lesabre sedan donor. Nevertheless, when it got here, it was incorrect, looking like a spear about 1 1/4" wide instead of the width (2-3") needed to cover the whole rocker. They have not yet responded to my follow-up calls. Do you think that perhaps a narrower one was also available? Adam, your original LeSabre sedan (turq) was a base LeSabre, wasn't it? What did the rocker molding look like on that one? Same as your current car?

Thanks as always in advance,
Steve.

hmmm....good question. You may be right with that. I think they are different.

These are the "upgraded" rocker moldings. Are you wanting the standard set?

[SBRMD]

Thanks for keeping me on your radar, Adam. Yep, those are the animals. I did get a set though, finally, from that guy who vulturized that LeSabre version of your Centurion Coupe a few mo ago. The passenger side item is on LeCenturion, and the driver side is now...surplus. Anyone need one?

Thanks again anyway!
