Can some one tell me what the difference is between the 79 and 80 rocker moldings. I can find used 79's in good shape all over the place but the 80's are all damaged.

 

Thanks

Apparently, the '80 moulding is different from the'78-79, and the '81-82. Don't know if the diff. is cosmetic only, or if it fastens differently. Someone will know if the '80 will fit or not.

The 79s are an inch longer than the 80 rocker panel. There is a thread about this on page 6 of the body forum but I can't figure out how to post it clickable.  Mike
