Recomendation of wheel moldings needed

**Too Many Projects** · #1 03-29-2023, 01:16 AM

I need to get a set of repro wheel opening moldings for my '67 Camaro and am hoping people have a recommendation for a good fitting and quality brand.
Thanks

A couple years ago I had to replace a rear one on my 67. I tried to go the cost effective way but they were all junk. Heartbeat City has some good ones but you’ll have to pay up for them.

I hear ya on most being junk and I don't mind paying more for better quality and fit. Camaro Central seems to have the same brand as HBC, but without the extra handling fee add on. I'm going to call them and get a shipping quote this afternoon. Bodyman will be here soon to get a little more done.

Join the 67-69 Camaro parts group page on Facebook marketplace and buy some nos ones. The 67 deserves it.

Thanks...I wish I could, but looking at more money than I have already for paint. I need to get the holes drilled in the new quarters and NOS fenders before then.

I've had this car ~18 years and scoffed at the price of NOS moldings back then. I should have bought every set I saw when they were under $200...

Actually, I think I am in that group. I don't do FB much. I should go look...

I was told by many people that the original wheel opening molding do not fit well. My buddy just put a set of repo moldings on a 68 Yenko, because the originals NOS fit awful.
I had a set of NOS wheel opening molding for my 69, and chose to put on a set of reproductions for the same reason. The originals had large gaps that I could not get to the body line.

Try ebay. $555 to your door. All four w shipping in the GM wrapper. I too tried aftermarket. Plain junk. Just my .02.
