73 Cuda tailpanel painting

When you have the rear chrome trunk and quarter moldings,should the organisol come partway up the where they mount ?or does the flat area where they mount body color?

Pretty sure it's body color,my  73 or 74 does not have the trim so I can't say 100% Rich

Mine has organisol on the quarters and top of the tail light panel as well,
but it didn't have andy on the deck lid.

Great reference pictures everyone!!!

It's nice to see people caring about getting the details right on the 72-74 cars. :thumbsup:

Those are great pics! I just apinted my 74 and so long as you can't see the line when you put the moulding on, that'll do - which is what is happening above.

Hey guys, this is not a 72 - 74 but it does have the same black out treatment and shares the same chrome pieces that wrap around the tail section on my M46 Barracuda. Thought i would share how the blacked out section looks from the top view, i think it is very similar if not exact to how a 72 and up  Barracuda is blacked out :2thumbs:
