md1twal3,
I don't believe that the rear quarter trim had anything to do with this. My understanding was that the trim went on all the '69 GTO's until they ran out, somewhere in the May/June '69 timeframe (depending on the plant). Both of my cars came with it. One was built in Baltimore in March and the other in Arlington in May.
jegstek,
Is there some significance to the deck lid trim? I don't recall hearing that one being mentioned before.
From my research on the Judge convertibles, they don't seem to follow any particular patterns concerning options. I have found cars with only 3 options and some with 24 or 25 options. Many of the cars that I am aware of were built after March which makes me wonder if that had something to do with warmer weather approaching in many areas of the US and Canada? It makes some sense but that is just a guess.
