    I need a set of A pillar covers from a 68-72 A body 2 door post, 4 door, or wagon. Any GM brand will fit, but they are different from the coupe and convertible covers. They supposedly came in a soft foam/pad style like the convertibles, and may also be metal like the coupes. The length is post car/wagon specific.

    Attached is a picture of a set from a coupe for reference, but they are too long and won’t fit.

    Thanks.

    Actually 4-door sedan set is about an 1" longer than a 2-door hardtop. I have a pair of those if you need them

    They should be all metal,not covered. The only ones I have seen padded/covered were convertible. Let me know if you don’t find any.

    They are metal on both of my '72 sedans (a 2-door and 4-door).

    I was going by what another board member told me yesterday.

    I didn’t know that they were different until I tried to install a set I had for a coupe, and they are too long and will not fit.

    I would prefer a metal set. Brian, do you have a set from a two door post car?

    Max Damage I'm working on it!


    Both my 1968's (GS 400 GS Cal) have padded A Pillar covers. I hate to disagree with Brian on anything, but I think at least in 1968 they are in fact padded.

    68 69 were padded, 70-72 are steel. 2 door ht is different than 4 door or wagon. Convertible is all by itself.
