Skirt Opinion.....

[A383Wing]

...now that I have your attention....not that kind of "skirt" that the women wear....it's a question on my '73 Pontiac convert...

basically, which looks better to you...rear fender skirts installed or left off? 

[resq302]

I like em off better but its your car, do what YOU want!

[Daytona R/T SE]

Leave them on...

Big cars look good with fender skirts...

[1969chargerrtse]

I knew it was about car skirts wise guy.  Either way looks good.  I like options so probably favor on.

[RallyeMike]

Sure it's your car, but when you drive it WE have to look at it !!!

Skirts off, of course 

[Charger-Bodie]

on.

[TUFCAT]

ON.

[stripedelete]

off

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Off

[A383Wing]

well, here is my delema which is why I was asking around:

the skirts have the wheel well chrome on them which completes the chrome running from front to rear...if I leave the skirts off...there is no chrome at the top of the wheel well where skirts are located..

I do like the car with the skirts off....but it looks kinda funny with no chrome around the upper rear

[Nacho-RT74]

on

[Alaskan_TA]

Best of both worlds - run one on one side. 











With that out of the way, I vote on. It looks unfinished without them.

[FlatbackFanatic]

I like it both ways.

[68X426]

On. 

Ordered from the factory that way, right?   On.

But, in the privacy of your own garage what you do with your skirt is your business . . . . . . .

[HANDM]

Off, 
Pull the front molding and stash em with the skirts for the next owner......

[tan top]

  off 

[68X426]

Another idea: on for the even days, off for the odd days. 

What's up with the 59/60 Metro alongside the Pontiac? They had skirts I seem to remember. What it's story?

[Tilar]

Definitley ON.   

[Hemidog]

The opinions are really divided.

OFF.

There's no way that car came with only front trim?  Non skirt cars had to have trim front and rear. Buy a set of rear trim and leave them off.  Simple solution.
The car came with a rare option of skirts, I'd leave them on but to each his own.  My car came without a tic toc tach and I added it.

  If it came that way...they stay! You owe it to the now ended brand as an example of what was possible "back in the day". I got to LOVE those big Rag Tops! Nice car, more photos!

Both- with the top up--off
         with the top down - on
Each way seems to make a different effect for me.
Nice car by the way too.

That's not a bad idea and really gives it a new perspective to look at.

[Old Tired Rebel]

Skirts on,it gives a certain style and class to a luxury car.

I could be agreed but just if they were automatic like the top... I would get off the car just to put it on or remove it... I Do say ON, since looks great too with top and skirts.

I was thinking the same as well...the more I looked at the pictures

it's a 61 Metro...factory convertible, not a hardtop that was converted.

It was my biological dad's car...and the Pontiac was my step-dad's car...so I got both of 'em....the Metro runs & drives..just looks like crap because of the paint

This title is misleading.
I am not pleased with this sort of teasing.

[jar1292]

its the classic look with them on
for those that know what car it is and can appreciate a car that age in that condition the skirts make it that much more complete. think about if you didnt have them, it would seem to you that there missing cuz You know they are sopposed to be there. how much would you be willing to shell out to have them? you got them some others dont, and wish they had. as my wife would say "flaunt it if you got it" 

[Old Moparz]

I think with this particular car, the skirt needs to stay on since it has the flared wheel lip as well as the moulding. 

[Topher]

It depends on the skirt. If it's a solid color, I say go with a low heel. If it's a multi colored skirt, go with the pumps!  But either skirt looks better on the floor IMO. 

[Brock Samson]

looks better with..   

[Khyron]

I like it both ways.
