70 Chevelle - Is the windshield and rear window trim the same on a 4 door? What other cars had the same trim? What years? I am planning on a junkyard trip in the near future so i'd like to know what to look for. Any other "trinkets" I should keep an eye out for?

Thx.

There are some differences in the interior trim pieces.

Monte Carlos are different, at least the side windows are. That trim piece that snaps over the edge of the headliner and runs along the top of the front and back glass and down the quarter panel is different between a Chevelle and Monte Carlo. The Monte piece is shaped differently and is actually a bit shorter.

That headliner trim that goes around the back glass is the same, however. The exterior rear glass trim is the same for a Monte and Chevelle also.

the windshields are different and so is the rear window
the 4dr roof is a bit taller and so is the windshield and the rear window is completely different
