FOUND 1966 Plymouth front air dam / rock shield.

I need a, nice to mint, rock shield and it's hardware for my '66 Satellite. The piece that goes from the radiator support out towards the front bumper and it's rubber front edge.

Thanks!

It doesn’t touch the front bumper or brackets, it bolts to the core support. It is painted body color. Then a rubber strip is clipped onto the front edge.

Body colour down there? Not Black?

it was painted with the entire body. Then got some black overspray on topside from the core support blackout.

I have never removed one from a 66-7 but before and after had all been black including an nos one I had for a 70 Plymouth…

here we go again, big arguments stem from this subjet every time.

the 66-67 are different they don’t bolt to the bumper brackets, they bot to the core support so they got painted with the car.

here are photos of paint codes: A silver, 8 blue, W white, T copper. You can see the blackout paint covers most of the top but you can see the body color behind the beads and the rubber strip, and where the black is,chipped. Then the “restored” piece that some fool painted gray primer and gloss black over the code M turbine bronze paint. Enjoy.

I don't think anyone is arguing only questioning. Some are willing to learn and some just like to yell foul I guess. That being said Thank you for the pictures and explanation.

I'll take the bottom one in picture #1 Scott !!

sorry the silver one goes to my car and the rest aren’t for sale. I don’t know if 66 and 67 are the same, but they could be.

I’m glad to show these parts. These details are going to get lost to time because they are not the usual way Chrysler did the cars.

I would bet an nos on for these cars wouldn’t be body color because they wouldn’t know what color to paint them, like the chrome gas caps sold over the counter.

Thanks to @chargercrazed for going the extra mile with proper packaging and covering my needs! Also more support to confirm @R413 's advise on correctness. Bolted on and painted body colour then black out overspray on top.
