Default Original GM 1967 Under Car Exhaust Rocker Panel Moldings

I'm interested in buying a set of Original GM 1967 Under Car Exhaust Rocker Panel Moldings because I suspect the moldings currently on my car are repros. If you have a set please let me know. The condition of the original GM 1967 Under Car Exhaust Rocker Panel Moldings that I am looking for:
  • perfect/mint condition, ready to install OR
  • cosmetically imperfect but completely restorable and without any scratches in the metal (scratches in the paint are acceptable as this can easily be restored)

I am currently in KS and can be reached at two-zero-six nine-six-three eight two eight eight. I don't have paypal but I do have a mile-long list of individuals from whom I have purchased LOTS of parts and can provide some names if necessary.

Thanks for your consideration.

PS: please be willing to show me detailed images of your rocker panel moldings, especially the ends like in this photo from Panama58.

There are 2 NOS sets in GM packages on Ebay but not for the faint of heart at $2750. I have been looking for a set as well. The used ones are all scratched up in the anodized alum tops. This can't be buffed out. Good luck. They were out there for $1350 but demand has exceeded supply so inflation has reared it's ugly head.

Yah, I'm leery of NOS sets in GM packaging only because (correct me if I'm wrong) I've been told by many that original GM service replacements can have the folds/wrinkles on the ends which look EXACTLY like repros. haha


What I have (and don't want). See how the aluminum from the tips of the spear gets folded and wrinkled?

Just took this picture in the dark
These are used and came off a 67 big block coupe - restorable and not beat up. $275 + freight from Georgia. I can send better pictures in daytime if they are smooth enough

respectfully,

Hey tugboat53. Thanks for your efforts but the one on the left looks exactly like what I have now so the purchase of yours wouldn't help me. Again, thanks for taking the time to take and post this picture.

Sorry,
Mike
