    Does anybody know of some good southern wreckers that deal with chevy clamshells? I'm having very little luck in finding the wood grain trim on the rear drivers quarter panel. I've been watching ebay and wecrash.com with little luck.

    '71 Kingswood Estate

    Thanks Swanny but I don't think the '76 will work. The trim piece was the same for '71-'73. If you check out my pic's it will show you the piece that I need. The very last trim piece on the drivers side.

    That search led me to a place in Florida, I'll give it a shot. Thanks

    Hope it works out...they are a list of yards all over the USA. Lot's of places to choose from if they list your wagon or parts from one.

    rsherid,

    Just saw your post, I have a trim piece that may work for you (see pic below) I only have one... not sure if it's the driver or passenger side. I'm about an hour away from you in Ottawa, if it works for you, it's yours, let me know.

    Kingswood trim

    Thanks Heritage. That one is very close but it looks like the later model '74-76 Caprice Estate piece. Mine is about half that size with only one curve on the top. I am going to take a pic and post it of the other side and flip it so it should show exactly the correct shape. I appreciate the offer, its about the closest I have come so far. Thanks

    71 Kingswood Estate trim

    I have taken a pic of the other side of the car to show the trim piece required. I need the other side which is the drivers side. Thanks
