Door trim needed

For a lack of better terms I’m calling it door trim. Missing one piece for my 68 GS 400. Does anybody have this for my drivers door?

 

I believe that is the beltline reveal molding.

 

I have some from a 69 but it looks like 68 maybe different because of the vent window. Tony

 

Maybe, I'll look next week.

 

Yes they are different due to the wing window.

 

I believe I have some, ill check

 

Thank you Tony for the correct terminology, there’s no doubt a 69 would be different. But if you wanna look and let me know, I’d be interested if it’s the same

 

Thanks Doug , let me know

 

Here’s the 69 trim from the door front and back for you to compare. If you think you can use them please pm me. Tony

 

I checked and can't find any 68s. I have several pairs of 1/4 window trim so i should have the door trim but i dont know where i put it.

 

Thats funny I found the fronts and could only find one quarter window trim and should have a few.

 

This looks like it:

Checked, Got the door, but it does not have that molding on it.

 

Thanks for looking, Ive owned quite a few 68’s and 69’s and this trim is something I haven’t seen a lot of, was it something that needed to be special ordered on a GS?

 

Yes-Buick and Olds offered it in ‘68 and ‘69. It’s option code W5 on a Buick. Makes window fuzzies a ‘custom made’ thing, and, if you have it on a convertible it means you also have different pinch weld molding around the top well…

Here’s some discussion of that option:
