Ghia chrome moulding

Post by Bug-on »

Can someone please tell me whether or not all Ghias originaly came with side chrome moulding or not? I am currently looking to purchase a pre-1970 model, and I am seeing quite a few without moulding.
Thank you,

Yeah, it's a very common mod to strip 'em and fill the holes.

The past couple of weeks there have been a few sets on EBay (OEM at that) that went for about $75.00. (Still card packed no less) That is about $100 cheaper than the Stainless ones that ISP West sells. You will also need to buy the plastic clips then look back in the archives and read the good info re: installation posted by members. Kent

If you do a search for 'chrome side molding' you will find a lot of info. I did the title, and everyone came to my rescue with helpful hints. (I had no clue what I was doing) If the search is not working, its back on January 21st, or at this time, page 5. I bought my molding and clips from westcoast metrics and they look great!

Hope that helps!
