Yep. Woulda, coulda, shoulda….

Interesting. Wish I had asked the question before I put the car together. Most holes would be accessible after popping off door panels perhaps. I’m going to give this some serious thought. Thank you.

I’m thinking that wouldn’t work. The holes are right on the body line and I doubt that’s flexible. Someone prove me wrong with quality pics…lol. Did you use that on a Dart?

Long story short: What should be used to fill the side trim holes so that I can apply a 68 GTS stripe/decal?? Yes, the car is already painted. Yes, I should have thought about before paint, but I thought trim and clips would be easier and cheaper to find. Thoughts?? Thanks!

Here is one of the screws I used. Obviously not for a correct restoration, but I’m not doing that.

Fastenal stores are all closed, so I reverted to my in house hardware store and found 8 that matched. The drill bit just lightly touched the bolt holes...I didn’t want to get carried away. In hindsight, I may hit the bottom holes a little more.

I solved the issue. I found a Phillips head machine screw of the right threads and right length although the head was a tad too big. I lightly touched the bezel screw holes in the drill press to accommodate the bigger screws heads. It’s not perfect, but it’s a driver and not a concourse resto...

This may be an option too...

Good info all! I had forgotten all about Fastenal; I’m trying that today. My local Ace Hardware has every fastener I usually need, but not this time. Correct thread diameter, yes. Not the correct length. And the countersunk head, not even close...way too big. Fingers crossed for Fastenal.

FABO - HELP! This has come up before so I’m hoping to tap into the network for help. I bought taillight kits from Classic Industries and the bezel screws are way too small in thread diameter. They don’t care; “Sorry, those are what we get from the manufacture. I have no idea what size you...

Just my luck. Never even thought of that.

I bought a nice rear window trim, but the bottom doesn't fit the window!! I ASSumed that any 68 and up Dart (not incl the 73-up Sport) would be the same, but maybe not? As can be seen in the pic, the countour isn't even close. What say you, A-body brain trusts?? Do I need 68-69 trim...

While you're taking pics, can we see more of that Dart?

Found, bought and on the way!

SWEEEET ! ! I want that scoop... Anyone have one for sale???????

Hey, Homecloned...yea got the trim. Was actually better than I expected for the price. THANK YOU!! Fastback, that's almost a term paper! I appreicate it. Should have thought about the tapping blocks myself. Shaped a block into a V, and with a light strike took out a dinger right on the...

Although I'm not fond of it, (I'm NOT welding up the holes) I need to restore the side trim for a 69 Dart Custom 2-door. What's safe to blast the black paint off? Soda ash? Glass bead?? Any type of special hammer you'd use to "massage" the small dings??? Lastly, what does one polish...
