<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Postsedan</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Mike,

NOW here is a fellow '69 Chevelle Enthusiast that <span style="font-weight: bold">Get`s It!</span>

I agree 100%, the B90 is a beautiful trim package trim that looks great [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]

But these cars were indeed the Strip-Down Plain Jane Models.....If the car was ordered as an L78....it was usually going to do some drag racing and you can bet they hardly had any options. The fewer the Better!

I like Mike`s two cents!

If a car got the D96 accent stripe did it automatically come with wheel well trim? I was looking at my shipper sheet it shows D96 but no B96. I know my car came with wheel well trim from the factory. I know my shipper is missing the color on it I whited it out on the copy since it is blue now. Didnt need all the drama when it was shown with the car.

John,

All 1969 SS396 Chevelles got the wheel opening moldings, with or without the D96 stripe option. They are listed on your shipper copy, as part of the SS396 equipment.

Even though I like the bright trim on the post sedans, this particular car came without it originally, so I will leave it that way.
I have another one of these waiting in the wings to restore, and it came with the B90 trim, is an L78 car, and will get the trim put on it when done.

These cars were ordered in all kinds of configurations whether thay were an L78 or not, so if it came with it I won't leave it off just 'cause it's an L78 car.

Sorry Dan, JMHO. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

More fun with &quot;Spot&quot;







Nice to put a factory style weld back on the car.
