8' Upper Bed Moldings w/Clips? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Ironhorse** · 08-09-2020, 11:16 AM

Would like some thoughts on the WIW question for both sides of the upper bed side molding from an 8' bed. NO major dings or added screws, fit bed quite well with no pulled or bent sections. Was all held in place by the original GM clips which I have also. Removed from '70 3/4 ton and used the clips, not the later sticky adhesive clips GM went to I believe in '72. Driver quality with some minor nicks, nothing major at all. End short molding sections tight with the connecting pieces intact. 12 clips per side, total of 24. One side had one style of clips, other side had another style. Truck showed no signs of a re-paint, do not know whey two different styles on same truck? Two clips have the spring tang missing but think could still be used. Maybe with a dab of silicon?.

Need a bit of help here with a value guys. Nice driver quality with minimal nicks, no dents or added screw holes. All 24 clips, two have spring tangs broke but still held trim tight to bedside.

If they were mine and someone offered around $40-$50, i would let them go.
Shipping will be a killer on them however.
