The Coupes are steel and the Post Sedan`s are padded.

I repectfully disagree with this statement. I've seen the steel and padded in coupes. I think it was more to do with the new safety regulations that hit the books in the 69 model year.

If that were true than they would ALL be padded going into 1970-72.

Donnie,

I have seen a few anomalies on Coupes, but never a Post Sedan.

Hi Guys,

I have never seen the non padded pillar pieces, can you post some pics of them? Must be tough/all business looking.

Ryan,
They look exactly the same. You almost cant tell a difference until u pick them up, well I cant anyhow. Im sure Dan can spot them from a 100 yards away.
I thought I had a pic of mine.
Mike
