Does anyone know where I can buy the suburban fender trim?(SGT Stripes) I've seen it on ebay every now and then. Just wondering if there is some site that I haven't seen yet.

Thank You,

Rey

I have read several post here indicating these are pretty scarce. Also that no repops are made and if you find any they can get expensive. I have seen them go from 1200 to 2400. They do pop up on e-bay ever once in a while. I believe a set was offered here back some time ago. Maybe do a search in the swap meet forum of Parts For Sale and read about it.
I'm sure someone else can give a more up to date report than me but I thought I'd get it started!
Good luck and welcome to the Stovebolt.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

Those 14 pieces of stainless steel were only available as an RPO (Regular Production Option) on 1/2 ton and 1 ton Advance-Design Panel Trucks. Of course, they could also easily be installed on Suburban Carryall and Canopy Express Advance-Design trucks, since the rear fenders are the same.

Alvin has the correct price of these pieces of trim - they have sold on eBay for up to $2,400 as a NOS complete set.

There was a guy a while back that was reproducing them and selling them on evil-bay. The last i heard,he died and that deal is no more.
I have them on my panel,and some "extras" just in case something bad happens someday. Ive seen just misc. single pieces at swap meets go for close to 200.00 ea.!
Very Rare accessory!!!
