 If you are refering to a 1970 cuda they are called fish gill rockers and I believe they were an option. If you are looking to buy a set be aware that there is a right side and a left side on these

M25 - Custom Sill Moldings. They were standard on 'Cuda and Gran Coupe though only the 'Cuda ones looked like gills. They were not available on the Barracuda or the AAR 'Cuda.

Thanks, I found what looks to be pre-drilled holes on the front of rear quarter... not sure if their placement is correct for this molding.
   
I dont remember seeing a ref on the fender tag.  :clueless:   I'll have another look

THanks  :cheers:

Ok.   I took a look at the tag and the code m25 is on third line.   The decode was wide sill moulding (1/2 molding along top edge of doors).  Is that right?   I also have m88

Thx

Moldings at the top of the door are called belt moldings because they are at the belt line of the car. (Like how your belt would be at the middle of you.) I think those are M31, but I'd have to look it up.

All Cudas have M88. It's the trim around the rear panel.
