    My car had the 71 rocker moldings. Aren't those clear anodized?
    If they are, and you decide to polish them. Then clear coat or better yet, clear powder coat after.
    .
    With some nice aftermarket chrome wheels, it would look sharp.

    Are the 70 & 71 GC moldings different? I think they are.

    Isn't the 70 GC a four row horizontal molding?

    I think they would look good polished and clear coated. 
    I have a set and figured I would do the same.
