Just trying to get this straight: you have a 67 notch... you need rear window trim? or a gasket? or both? The 67 gasket has been available off and on, but I think it's not available right now. It uses the plastic lock strip, as you know. The lock strip is an extrusion so you could perhaps buy a kit for a fastback and trim to length if you can't find one listed for a notch. You also need the corner pieces which are often missing but which you might have.

The other option is you could use the 68-69 gasket, but then you need the 68-69 notch stainless molding, which is a very rare beast.

What's the current status of the car? Glass out? Seal shot?

Glass was installed with seal, the clips were added. Ideally, if I could find one, the stainless molding would be preferable. Looks nicer. Exterior restoration is complete except for this "speed bump". Am willing to have clips removed and reinstalled as a '67 with lockstrip. Have uploaded 1 picture of how the car looks today.
BTW, thanks for your reply.

Wow, looks great. I have seen at least one set of the stainless come up this year. I'll look out for another one. Good luck in your quest.
 
Stainless reveal moulding for front glass can come from any 2 door hardtop a-body except Duster, Demon, Dart Sport. Stainless reveal moulding for rear glass is 68, 69 notchback only. With correct gaskets and clips already installed, I would complete the front and would wait/hunt as long as it takes for the rear. Other classis vehicle owners you meet do understand. Some will tell you they have bought entire vehicles to get the few rare pieces they needed. Good hunting
 
I bought single pieces as they became available, NOT cheap. The front is reproduced I believe, as well as the FB. I think I saw a post or two on here regarding solutions on what they did. Now a days, you would think someone, somewhere, could provide a detailed blueprint and 3D print those plastic bastards.
 
Looks like mine. Same color even. Mine is also missing the correct lockstrips around the front and rear windows but its not a correct restoration so I don't worry about it. What are those mirror off of?
