Wanting to add a vinyl roof to a '67 442, but don't know which strip would most correctly match the GM trim best.

Would like the actual p/n as part of your reply.

Are you looking for the strip along the bottom of the C pillar?

I would guess it is between 1/2" and 3/4" wide, maybe closer to 3/4" (anyone have a better intel?). Evergreen #100 is .010" x .020" (equal to 1/2"), and Evergreen #101 is .010" x .030" (equal to 3/4"). The .010" thickness (equal to 1/4") may be a bit thick, but the thickness it easily sanded down a bit after it is glued in place.

All the Evergreen products mentioned by Greg and me are rectangular cross-section, which is what you want. Also, judging by Greg's example above, I would definitely stick to strip that is .020" wide.

For .010 thick strip use Evergreen #100 
For .015 thick strip use Evergreen #110
