Default 68 Wagon B-Pillar interior trim question

I would like to replace the drivers side interior upper B-Pillar trim piece in my 68 wagon. Does anyone know if they are the same as the 4 door sedans? They are hard to find for a wagon. If the sedans are the same, it should be easier to find.



Thanks
Old Joe

I can't say for sure on the 68 wagon, but they are the same as a sedan on my 63.

This is the actual B Pillar Drivers side trim piece that I want to replace in my 68 wagon. Looks great on the inside of the car. Unfortunately it has a chip taken out of it about the size of a quarter where it wraps into the door jamb. Unfortunately it sticks out like a sore thumb when you open the drivers side door since it sharply contrasts with the red paint of the door jamb. I thought about trying to just rebuild the chipped piece with some JB Weld but probably just easier to find another one and paint / dye it to match.

Thanks. I appreciate the kind words, but can't take credit for the build. Scott Maserang did it. If you haven't seen this, here is a read on it.

P.S. I have no idea why the first picture in the article is fuzzy

Yes, the B-pillar trim is the same as a 4-door, Scott
