Rocker Panel Moldings Question
 
I have a 65 and I just bought some new rocker panel moldings and I have no clue how to put them on they came with these clip type things and some pins, but there is no holes were the panels should go on the body, can some one help me?

Welcome aboard Matt!

I think the pins you received with the kit are pop-rivets? If this is the case you drill holes and use the pop rivets to attach the clips (a pop rivet gun is pretty cheap). Then snap the rockers onto the clips.

Have Fun!

Matt,
Don't let the thought of drilling into your sheetmetal scare you. Pop rivet guns are pretty cheap as red has stated. If you have a local body shop that you trust, go ask for some advice on installation. I get tons of questions answered and even a little free work done that way. Ultimately if you don't want to tackle it yourself I don't think it would be that expensive to have them installed. Good luck!

Matt, I had the same problem. I was too nervous to drill holes in my '67 so I took it to a body shop. They installed the moldings and trim around the trunk lid for about 75 bucks. E.
