Title: need interior parts for 1980 pinto
Post by: Taterdawg87 on December 01, 2013, 11:24:22 PM
thanks for looking. i purchased my pinto just a couple months ago. i fell in love during the test drive, and i knew it was a done deal. overall the car is in nice shape. i'm looking to install a headliner. but i cant seem to find the trim pieces that go across the top and side of windshield (on inside) i'm not sure of what these parts are called. so it makes it very hard to look up. does anyone have any for sell or know where to find them? thanks

On my 77 the interior is trimed out woth the rubber gasket as shown in this picture. There are no separate trim parts.

79 & 80's have a glued in windshield.  They do not use the rubber gasket as the 78 and earlier cars do.  There is a rubber trim piece that trims out the inside edges along the top and sides.  Usually they are color specific.  I do not currently have a picture of one.  Maybe Fred has one he can sell you?
