One of my friends bought a nice '78 Coupe de Ville. To have a really nice car, he would need following parts:
1 molding for the LH rear wheel aperture
1 RH  lower impact strip on the front bumper (I found a NOS upper impact strip)
1977-79 C and D cars have the same parts I'm looking for.
Let me know what you have!

Are those cars so unpopular that I got no answer?

Looks like it.   Maybe the Crushers got most of them when the scrap metal prices were so high.

Hi,
I have the rear wheel opening molding, but I’m away and it will be a couple weeks before I could ship it, so I didn’t answer, but I’d be happy to get it for you if you still need it then.
I might have an impact strip, but probably can’t compete with a NOS one, but I can look and see if I have a nice one
Thanks
Michael

Thanks Michael for your honest answer! I have to check with the owner; it's up to him if he can wait. The impact strips are not looking good; if you have one which is not so bad, why not?
Anyway, I'll let you know about the owner's decision.
