Got a specific question that I'm stumped on... Later this winter I will be installing a new set of interior panels into my '66 Coronet. In preparation, I recently removed the mismatched panels that were installed when I got the car and have stumbled across a head-scratcher. See pictures...
Is the chrome trim on top of the door card supposed to be crimped to the panel, or screwed to the door? My drivers side door panel has the trim piece attached to itself, vs. the passengers side is screwed to the door shell threw factory screw holes. Which is correct? P.S. - I know that the drivers side door is not original to the car.
I assume the chrome is to be screwed to the door shell and acts as the top retainer, but am curious if anyone here can confirm? and/or shed some light on the two radically different mounting methods?
According to Legendary, all 66-70 B-bodies (Dodge and Plymouth) require 13 clips for door panel attachment; my goofy drivers side door panel had 18 clips around the entire perimeter.
Thanks in advance. Tyler
