Where is the proper Cowl Tag location? 1966 Nova SS :turn::turn:

top passenger side of the firewall. above the heater. If you need measurements, I dont know them off the top of my head.

Oh yes, found the cowl tag, thanks. I am looking for some id that indicates exterior trim, trying to find out if my 66 SS should have the lower and middle aluminum/chrome strips. Is there such an id? :turn:

SS's did'nt have molding down the body line. only the lower trim. If your VIN starts with a 117 or 118, it should only have bottom SS rocker trim. if it's a 115 or 116, then it's not an SS, but a sport coupe, and will have standard rocker molding and the mid belt line molding.

the SS trim was was the rocker, bottom of the door, bottom of the rear quarter panel, and bottom front of the fender. The non-SS rocker molding only covered the rocker panel.

make sense?

Thanks again. Yes the car is a 117/118 car. At the Temecula Rod Run a person approached and wanted to know if I would like the bottom trim and in good condition. Is there aftermarket lower trim?

 

[undercvrSS]

No aftermarket made. There was some for a short time, but they stopped making them. Not sure how well the fit.

If you're looking for some, and that guy has some reasonable, jump on it. Make sure all 8 pieces are there.

Thanks, about how much does the set go for?

 

[undercvrSS]

depends on how nice of shape. I've seen an ok set for $750 and up to $2k for NOS. I see it on eBay every now and then.
