Re: 1960-1961 GMC paint divider trim

Degree of rarity is subject to the person seeing something. I see GMC four piece upper sets frequently enough to say they don't bring what you think. Demand is low for them because ownership of the trucks requiring them is actually lower than the number of pulled sets for sale usually. I have 2-3 of these sets and last time I tried to sell them couldn't give them away.

Pretty much have to catch the right guy with a plain jane 60-61 he wants to dress up. But the Chevy trucks are hotter and more plentiful and more Apache owners willing to spend big money on stainless so thats why those three piece 60-only sets are so high. Right now the market is flooded on those used-to-be uncommon sets. About 10 sellers in the last 8 months have posted sets for Apaches for 800-1000 bucks a set.

Now, if you guys want to dig up something truly rare and impossible to find with a huge demand and no competition selling against you? go find the 60-61 stainless bed mouldings for a GMC. Chevrolet produced approx 85 trucks with their version of this rare bed trim to every 1 GMC that had it. I have been searching for a pair of the short bed GMC mouldings for about 10 years with zero luck or leads. So if you guys dig any of that up, you know who to contact LOL
