Need help in locating the plastic trim that goes around the interior of the rear window for a Bird.  I checked most of the suppliers and no one has a set listed.  A couple places list them for Daytonas, but nothing for the Bird.  Thanks!!

IIRC, your best bet is the windshield interior headliner trim 60's-70's GM products....

He's correct, much easier and cheaper to. Can paint it any color you want.

thanks guys, but I'm not sure what you mean.  Not sure how I should order them, is there a specific make, model and year I should use?  What company do you suggest?  I've never dealt with GM parts suppliers before!!

My son has 3d scanned the actual originals from 1 of my birds and is printing them, but has not yet achieved the exact finish of the original. They include all Chrysler numbers and he is working on other plastic parts and fender scoops. Hopes to have scoops available within 3-4 weeks-the also will have correct stamping numbers.

Probably stuff like this...

1968-1972 GTO Headliner Moldings, Interior Side link

Did your son ever make the interior trim?  Thanks

This response may be way late to the party, but I was looking for the same item, the interior rear window trim for my Bird, last year. It is a one piece flexible vinyl item, found on 1970 4 door B-Bodies. I obtained a nice green one and dyed it black. Looks perfect. As you know, there is also a small black metal clip that connects the free ends. Once in awhile you will find the clips for sale - one of which is on eBay presently.

The clip is easy to make yourself if you take your time.

Always best to use original Mopar Parts!    :2thumbs:
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?
