70 swinger has the thin body side molding that runs down the middle of the car from front to back...
now on the 73+ cars I've had, this was just plastic and it was glued on.... so I always just yanked them off. This one is actually metal with a rubber strip and it has the clips and pegs on the side of the car which means alot of filling and block sanding if I remove it and grind the pegs off...
I was going back the original green with maybe just a hint more metallic and a black vinyl top to replace the fugly green original!
Whats everyone's opinions on leaving the trim or removing it? It looks like most people have tossed it!
On a side note... I wonder why my 70 does NOT have fender mounted turn signal indicators OR the lower molding under the door.... ? Weird!
