What year door panel is this?
I got these with my 68 I bought a while back. I know they're not 68. But what year are they? They're pretty nice but I think they might be an earlyish reproduction.

Hi D,
That style panel was first seen at the start of the 70 model year cars and continued to be used through 77 production.
That's the panel from 'standard' interior. A panel from a deluxe interior has a 'swath' of carpet across the bottom.
Regards,
Alan

Thanks.
Thank you. My interior is bright blue and I have a reproduction set of door panels that are the wrong color for it. I'm also kind of a big guy so I thought I might use these in my car to give me some shoulder space..

Hi D,
The original style 68 panels changed at least once during production because people were complaining about limited shoulder room.
I think you'll find at least a little more room with those trim panels.
