3 pics of my '71 w/ "new" rocker panel molding......

Just added rocker panel molding to my '71 SE, big improvement imho, it really kind of finishes the car and ties it all together.











Actually got the idea for that particular molding from one of Tim Wellborn's cars:

Looks great

I agree that it sort of "finishes" the Charger!  Nice addition and it looks great!

That finished the look.  Not that your Charger needs any help looking good.

Your ride looks very nice I like those mouldings too, my 71 came with a thinner style but I opted to not put mine on after the restro. Btw whats the fuel pump mounted to?

There is an inner "pannel" up there, but, if I remember, it would be hard to get to if the stock gas tank would still be there, mine has a fuel cell in the trunk:

Never seen rocker moldings and a fuel cell together on the same car, Have to say it kicks ass

Nice. My '72 has thin rocker moldings....would have thought they'd be the same?

I think both were available.

Looks nice. I took mine off. They tend to trap dirt and salt which leads to rust. Why is the gas tank in the trunk ?

I don't drive mine in the winter so salt is not an issue, as far as the gas tank goes, the stock on developed holes, so I took it as an opportunity to step up my fuel system, I was told, with my engine, a constant pressure that comes from an electric pump is better for that engine than a stock mechanical pump. It's also a lot easier to start the car after I pull it out of storage, I don't have to prime the carb anymore, just flick a switch and the whole system is full of fuel & pressurized.

Cool. I have a electric fuel pump also, but the stock location of the fuel tank works also, and I don't lose the trunk space.

Found even an older pic, before the rocker molding and wheel opening molding:

[ACUDANUT]

Were the studs still there for the trim, or did you go another way for install ?.
It does look nice.

For the rocker molding, I had to drill holes for the underneath, (they wrap around to the bottom of the car), That's pretty much where they are held, then there's about 4 trim screws that snug it to the body, had to drill those holes into the rockers too.

They look great on the car!
