Wheelwell Moldings - Option or Standard?
Were wheelwell moldings an option or standard equipment on a 1970 GTO? I have a zero option car I'm finishing up and I'm trying to return it to it's originol stripper glory. I have not seen too many 70 cars that don't have the moldings, so I always thought they were standard. Now I'm not so sure.

They were optional, but they ALL look better with them on.

Not necessarily true. My '70 Judge, built in Canada in late October states on the original window sticker, as part of the "standard equipment list", "mouldings-decor". In addition, I also have a very small piece of the build sheet, and it clearly shows the N96 code, even though the car didn't have any décor/moulding option on the window sticker or phs/invoice. Back then, things were not always 100% one way or the other. As a bonus, they're still on the car!

My 1970 Oshawa built GTO Judge has NO wheel lip moldings.
They were optional.

What's N96? B96/694 was the wheel opening molding (moulding) option. It should have been included as part of the Decor Molding (moulding) group (Y86/324).
It was standard on the LeMans Sport. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
