I never saw a molding like that. Only seen the Pontiac letters back there. Might try frankspontiacs.com or search for a guy named Kurt Kelsey in Iowa. I used to buy parts from those guys. Ames Performance Engineering is another source.

There are just enough holes to spell P O N T I A C which is what i believe my first car a 1972 LeMans had on it

there was definately not a "molding" piece that went all the way across....

so you are basically looking for small letters, i am thinking plasic, but its possible they were metal...

Yes there was a " molding " piece, they were on luxury Lemans cars.

If I'm not mistaken you will also need the rear quarter trim. They mount under the lip of the rear quarter next to the trunk lid on both sides. I have them for sure and will check if i have the luxury lemans chrome trim. Do you know if your dads car came with the rear wheel skirts??

2 points for me.

AMES is good just an idea but www.specialinterest.com theres always cars for parts on there. I guess no luck on fleabay?

 

[ThikStik]

If all else fails, let me know.

That was a Luxury LeMans only part. Few were made, thats why you are having a hard time finding. Did you look in those Pontiac magazines for parts guys and Hemmings?

 

[GNVAIR]

Try the classical pontiac website.

 

[fireberd350]

the car does have side skirts and he does have them

i found out that the luxury lemans piece is particular to that model....it says pontiac in the middle and has trim going out of each side of it while the other lemans just have the word pontiac going across the entire trunk...

hes tried ames and year one and all the mail orders with no luck....im trying to find a used one b/c it seems impossible to find an NOS or re-popped one

thanks for your help so far guys
