Body / Glass: Fender well rocker trim 62 Hawk GTim

[Hawkowner]

Looking at pictures of 62 GT,s I see a Crome Strip on the rocker panels and the edges of the fender wells. The carI recently purchased does not have this trim the car was posted on E Bay and it was brown at that time and did not have the Crome installed at that time.
My queston is was there different trim levels or was the trim an option.I not looked at the car closely to determine if the clip holes had been filled during restoration nor have I Sprung for the $30 plus dollars for the build sheet.
Thanks in advance for the info

The rocker panel ribbed aluminum molding, and the stainless wheel opening trim was standard on GT Hawks. There was NO delete option. available. ever.
Someone filled in the holes.

As bez said they all had it. They tend to get kind of beat up if the car was used a lot. There where no clip holes all they used where screws to hold the mldg on so either they are still there or someone filled them.
