Default Rocker Trim, Nova?

I didn't realize that the pictures were so bad until I downloaded them. The smooth parts are from my 66 Chevelle. I'm not sure what the ribbed parts will fit. I bought them at a Maple Grove Super Chevy Show when I was 16, almost 18 years ago.

I made the mistake of asking, "Will these fit a 66 Chevelle?" Of course the guy said yes. I took them home and found that they were a little too short for my Chevelle. It cost me about $10 but I learned a very valuable lesson that day. Ask the vendor what the part fits before you tell him what kind of car you have.

After all these years I still don't know what the parts fit. Any ideas? I can measure them and/or get better pictures if it will help.

Looks like 3rd gen Novas to me, I don't recall that style on the '66/'67 Novas.

I figured $10 for 2 sets would be better than over $100 for one set. It was 18 years ago when $10 was a lot to me. I was in high school at the time. Aside from the dirt and tar they are not too bad.

Just measured my 70 Nova trim, the long pieces along the bottom with the ribs on it. They measure out at 78 1/4 inches.
