67 Plymouth Belvedere question.

[Brutalform]

Can anyone tell me if the side molding that travels the length of the car, all have a red strip in it? Or were there other colors available?

Slightly off topic.

I own a 67 Belvedere II 2drHT. It does not have the typical side molding you are showing. It has wheel lip moldings and rocker moldings. When I looked the car, I assumed the trim had been removed and the holes filled however looking in the trunk and inside the front fenders shows no evidence of holes being filled. I was confused as i thought the side molding was part of the Belvedere II model.

This summer I was at the Des Moines Good Guys and saw another 67 without the side moldings and with the wheel lip and rocker moldings. It was an unrestored car, and it had a very interesting option, the Silver Special interior and top (pic below).

The Silver Special was a Belvedere II only package. The Silver Special could be: A silver car with the special vinyl top and interior, the top and interior with any color, the top only or the interior only. The Silver Special also deleted the side molding and included wheel lip and rocker molding. 

When I dug into this package, I discovered it was a fairly common.

Enjoy.

Thank you sir. I was hoping I could just go with plain chrome.

Not off topic at all. And thank you for replying and sharing the pics. I have seen a few in my searches that did not have the molding as well. A few were the GTX version, and if I am correct, would not have it. I’m planning a build converting a GTX into a plain Jane Belvedere RO23. I hope to find bench seats from a supplier. Maybe Harts Parts? At least the kit body has the sail panel moldings cast in it already.

I'm I'm the middle of building the Revell 70 roadrunner.  Any chance that seat is correct for the belvedere. That could be a source for you.

I’m thinking it could be more correct than the one that’s available from Harts. But the Harts bench seats will match the rear seat that’s in the Revell GTX kit. I don’t mind removing and grafting a more correct looking rear seat to make a Belvedere. I’m going to have to take a look in my stash to see if I have a RR seat. I might get lucky and find a front and rear.

I just realized the 70 RR is 1/24 scale. If the seats look good enough, might be a bit too large to use.

I realized that after posting. I also noticed the "emblem" in the center of the seat backs seems wrong on those. These are the kit seats, I modified the headrest to be adjustable rather than molded in.

Thank you for your help John. I appreciate it. Interior looks fantastic.

Thanks Bill. I just requested combined shipping from that seller. 
Didn’t you use the bench seat from Harts on your white Belvedere build?

Possibly the Grotheer car?

Yes I did

 

But the shape of the seat is NOT accurate to a 1967 Belvedere . As the belvederes back seat DID NOT have that same sunk in center like the GTX did

Plus the pattern isnt even close . But it was the only thing I could find with a reasonable search effort 

 

 

 

 

IF I were to do another 67 Belvedere conversion build. I will take a good look at trying to use the above 3d printed seats instead. The pattern is a little different . But the shape is more accurate to my eyes 

I have his entire interior conversion on hand for another build Ive got planned 

 

If one were to go the 3d seat direction, It will require a hand made pkg tray
