1969 Convertible windshield trim paint code
« on: August 23, 2021, 01:05:01 AM »
What was the paint code that was used for the satin silver on the upper interior trim piece (the long piece between the sun visor mounts) on the '69 convertibles?

Was it painted in 69? In 68 it was plated satin chrome.

In 69 it is also satin chrome plating.All three pieces across match. Painting is what some people do to mimic the factory satin chrome plating.

Another thread found using the search feature and the words "Convertible header finish" pretty sure there are others that may be found using different key words

Know that a few have been able to find shops to plate them successfully but not sure they are sharing that info

If this is not merged we should at least fix the subject, windshiled to windshield, to help with future searches
