Needing the side trim that goes from front fender down to tail panel. Looking for both sides. It is a 2 door hard top. Mine is battered an bruised to bad.

That looks like 67 but I could be wrong. They had different trim levels. I have the lower spear type but not the belt moldings.I think I sold the 66 440 trim I had. Gotta look.
 
What would a complete set be worth? I'm up in the air on if I should keep mine or delete all of it. I'm stripping my fenders in the next couple of weeks and doing body work so I need to make up my mind soon. It's a 66 440 set which is what I think your looking for.

I have no idea what a set would be worth. Guess it all depends on condition. But if you do decide to sell it I would be interested in it. Thanks
 
IMHO I would delete the side trim Looks cleaner with out it! Yes that is 67 trim!
 
I have thought about it without the trim. But my color is gonna be the factory light blue and I think it needs something on the side so it won't look so bland to me. Thought about a painted navy blue stripe on the side?
 
Go search for pics.

I think the side trim on 66 440 model (and Plymouth Belvedere) looks particularly good, and contributes to making the car look longer.

The 67 trim does not have the same effect because of it's placement, both in height and along the existing body line.
If you remove 67 trim, the line is still there.

Also note the 66 trim is bolted very close to the crisp line on the quarter. filling those holes can be challenging.

IMO a 67 look fine without side trim, but a 66 440 loses something.

I've never really cared for the 66 500 trim either (sorry 66 500 guys).
 
I ditched my side trim on my 66
