68 RS wheel well mouldings
« on: April 25, 2012, 06:39:42 PM »
I was at a Camaro show last year and met a guy who gave me a photo copy of the template that was included with the GM wheel well mouldings for a 1968 RS.It shows where to cut the front mouldings since the rear ones were already shortened.Anybody out there need this?

rick,
R/S mouldings going on a R/S should not have to be cut. This is from GM?

The instruction sheet is dated Feb 2 1974 and has a picture of the moulding and where to cut it and drill the hole for the screw.On the bottom of the sheet it says"REWORK REQUIRED WHEN USING UNIT 9785880-81 ON 1968 CAMARO RALLY SPORT (Z22).

I bought 4 new 68 R/S wheel mouldings from Champion Chevrolet in Manhatten Beach in 1980. Installed them two years ago with a repaint, they fit perfect, came with small package of screws, all holes were correct, and no instructions at all.

Rick if you are actually posting the pic it maybe too large a file. If you have Google plus or other internet share account you can post it there then link here with no size restrictions.
