Fall Fling 25 Oct 23, 2021 Van Nuys CA -info & roll call

That was a fun event and your video was great! My orange GTS conv "crawled out of the woodwork" to make it in the video. It's missing the lower windshield molding and was curious if anyone had one. I'll also post a wanted ad for it. Met some great folks there.

The lower building is not stainless it’s a special 67-69 A-body plastic chrome strip.

Wow! I've must have owned seven or eight 67 - 69 darts (2 convs) and never new that or had a reason to, I guess. The original windshield was destroyed in transit from mich to ca in 81 and the repair shop must have destroyed the plastic one. I didn't think much about it then. I was just excited to get a free new windshield! Thanks for the great links/info. I have to think on this one...
 
Not sure what molding was used on the 69 GTS parked next to you

I have been told that you can just install the hardtop seal and trim, I know people have worked hardtop trim into the bottom of the verts.

It was good talking to you. I'm the one with another GTS convertible and my wife was in her Jazzy scooter. The lower "trim" really isn't trim. It's a mylar covered lock strip. You cannot salvage a used one, but they are available new. The side stainless has to come off to get it on correctly.

Update on my GTS conv lower windshield molding. Found a stainless at the spring fling swap meet, trimmed an inch off each end, excessively polished it and installed it with plenty of butyl. Worked out great and much cheaper than $275.00 for the acrylic version. Thanks for everyone's input.
