Pretty sure it's not the same as a 68. There are also 2 different lengths for 68.

Tim: Please turn off the caps lock button. It's viewed as yelling in the e-mail realm.

Molding: Try Year One and Ground Up. They may have it, but I get the feeling that you'll need to buy used or hope to find some NOS.

Do you need long or short style?

Tim, I'm pretty sure year one has em. There were two different types, one type was used if car had stripe, other was used if there was no stripe

Tim,

Try these guys: http://www.true-connections.com/. A friend of mine has been dealing with them on his 65 and has been happy with their sevice. Otherwise I don't think the molding is available repro yet but I believe it is in the works. Good Luck. As for the 69 parts, they are different.

I see in year one's catalog they have the 1968 front fender molding. Yes, it looks like a hockey stick. P/N XQ9RH and XQ9LH $45 per pair or $24 each. Also our sponsor Ground Up has them in their catalog with a comment call for price. Call Ground up first to see if they have them.

Try Ground Up (site sponsor) or National Parts Depot.

The ones in the Year One catalog are the LONG style moldings. They are the ones which go all the way down the front of the fender.

If you need the short, you'll have to look for used or NOS. If you do find some used ones, make sure they have the mounting tabs on the back side. They can be removed.
