Matt,
You are correct, these are not being repopped. The good part is they are
rarely removed from salvage cars. They're not a high demand part so if you
could find a 69 Chevelle it would probably have them. Since they are
stainless they can be straightened and repolished. I did my own. They
weren't that hard but you need small body hammers and dollies, sandpaper
from 100 to 2000 grit and a 10 inch buffing wheel and different polishing
compounds.
If this sounds like too much work there is a guy that advertises in
Chevelle World that does this kind of work. His name is Frank Joslin, Phone
(715) 325-6015.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] Stainless Steel Restoration
Hi All.
I have a question for you guys about the window trim on my '69. There is
the stainless steel trim that is in the window channel below the drip
rail. It holds the main window weatherstrip. I've heard those are not
available to buy reproduction, correct?
Mine are in pretty bad shape. I started to try and clean them up, but I
didn't make much progress. I have heard there are shops out there that
restore them, but I didn't have any luck search Team Chevelle, etc.
Has anyone heard of these guys?
