    WTB: Window Scrapers P-body

    Like most p-body owners out there, i need window scrapers (i.e. belt molding) for an 89 Shelby CSX (89 Shadow/sundance 2-door). Let me know if you have any!!!! Thanks!!

    I think I have a set from a two door. Are they year specific or all years interchangable?

    Well not exactly year specific but they are model specific.

    DSchik is looking for the wide version used on the ES & Shelby models. There is also a more common narrow version used on all other P bodies.

    I'm not sure what year the wide mouldings stopped but it wasn't 1989 as I've seen plenty of 1990 VNT Shadows with them.

    87-90 are the same. It's the '91 (or 92) and up that they change where they don't wrap all the way around the 1/4 window.

    My guess it was probably 1991 when they brought out the stripped down "America" versions.

    There was a thread a ear ago about how someone found them at JC Whitney. Now, not sure if they were Dodge specific, or somthing universal or not... but I'd take a look there.

    Bill, Sweetland told me the right (or was it left?) sides were still available when he had his '89 Shadow painted. May be all gone now...

    They are all gone from Mopar inventory and a dealer search comes up empty. This is for both the black & chrome wide scrappers.

    I recall that JCwhitney thread but I want to say that it didn't pan out. I think someone got too excited and posted before they received the scrappers they ordered and when they did get them they were of no use.

    Kind of like those weatherstripping threads that pop up every now and then. Someone posts that they found a company to reproduce weatherstripping without asking all the right questions upfront so a week or so later they come back saying it wont happen because the company will have to make a mold which requires a prepaid order of something like 10,000 weatherstripping sets to even consider the job.

    **E-mail from Year One this past Nov...




    After reading the e-mail I just received from Year One in regards to belt mouldings, etc., I don't see this as a possibility. That is unless it's another 10-15 years down the line and these cars are worth something, or someone has a buttload of avail cash....
    ---------------------

    Mike,
    I don't normally respond to the questions outside of my product line,
    however I use to own a GLHS and still hold an interest in these cars.
    For me to consider making any one of these parts the commitment would be
    considerable. For example, the door belt molding. That would require a
    fifteen to twenty thousand dollar investment in tooling, and a product
    run of one thousand units. Each with a cost of approximately twenty
    dollars. This represents a total expenditure of thirty five to forty
    thousand dollars. This is possible for a part that is within my catalog
    line, but for something that I have no way to market all the units would
    have to be presold at a thirty percent margin. I would suggest getting a
    club or forum together and pooling your money to make what you need. At
    this time I would not be interested. Good luck.
