Package tray backend gap
 
Just finished installed a new a meshed style package tray in my 67 Lemans. Gap (about 1/2 inch) between backend package tray and bottom of rear window is bottering me. Any molding available to fill that gap ?

There should be a metal lip at the backside of the panel above the glass channel.
This is what the tray should be slipped into.
The metal lip should be the same color as your interior.

Thanks Jeff. My Lemans is missing that metal lip. Did not find any at Ames, PartsPlace, etc. Do you know of any other supplier where it might be available ?

That lip is part of the body sheet metal. It isn't a separate piece.

That piece is part of the filler panel from the rear window to the trunk opening.

Another odd thing in my restoration. I can confirm that this lip is missing in my car, probably cut by P.O. for whatever reason. Any suggestions ?

You will have to place an add in the parts wanted section for that piece. And it will come from a person parting out a body. Not sure if 64 65 bodies have that part like 66 67 do.
The back window area is a more prone to rust because of design. Check to see if you have the three pieces for the headliner to be glued to one on each sail panel and one piece across the top. They are not reproduced either, if they are missing.
