elkabong 09-10-2003, 04:15 PM Does anyone know where I can get the two pieces of vinyl top trim for a 67 El Camino? I've been looking for a couple of years with no luck and it does not seem like anyone is offering a repro of them. Thanks for any help. a73elkyss 09-11-2003, 07:23 AM I can't seem to find any reference to the part in any of my catalogs. I would probally give the following people a call. They are very helpful in locating parts. Also, do you have a GM part number? Anyway, try: Larry and Connie Pattern at Mostly Chevelle, 20 Blanford Stage Rd, Russel MA. 01071. Phone is 413-862-0061 Hope it helps. elcamino72 09-11-2003, 07:46 AM I just attempted to look these up in my 1976 edition of the Chevrolet Parts book. I can not find a listing for these mouldings for the 1967 El Camino's. I found them for the 1970-1972 El Camino's, but not the earlier ones. Also, I found them for the 1966-67 Chevelles, but, once again, not the El Camino's. It could be that GM didn't produce that many, there wasn't a high demand for them as service parts so they discontinued them sometime before my book was published in 1976. Sorry I couldn't be of much help. ColdBastrd 09-11-2003, 10:30 AM Yeah those were discontined by GM along time ago. No ones making a repo of them yet. Maybe you want to give L Camino Parts (http://www.lcaminoparts.com/) a call at 559-495-1338. They are a sponsor of the board and I think they have a bunch of used stuff. elkabong 09-11-2003, 11:09 AM Thanks for the tips, whats bad is I have one side, but a few years ago someone "borrowed" one while I was parked. Thanks again, maybe I can help someone in the future. a73elkyss 09-11-2003, 11:45 AM Can you post a quick pic of the one you have? That way, if anyone see's one at a swap meet, we could get in touch with you. Just an idea.. StrictlyChevy 09-21-2003, 08:12 AM If my memory serves me correctly, the factory didn't put vinyl tops on the '66 - '67 El Caminos. This was a dealer "option" on these years. I believe factory vinyl tops didn't come out until '68. RATCAMINO 09-21-2003, 03:04 PM on a related note,has anyone else seen the 78-87 el caminos with vinyl tops? i saw one at a junkyard and thought maybe it was custom until i saw another one down the street for sale with a vinyl top! i have one of the moldings from the one at the junkyard. 87ElCamino 09-21-2003, 03:31 PM has anyone else seen the 78-87 el caminos with vinyl tops? I've seen 5th gen Elkys with vinyl tops. But, GM never offered an optional vinyl top for the 5th generation Elkys. It was probably a dealer option or an aftermarket add on. :mrgreen: | ||
