<VV> 65' Monza Rocker Panel Moulding Trim mounting

[John Oshea]

On my 1965 the first rocker panel moulding mounting hole is 1 3/16 inches 
forward of the door jam and 1/2 inch down from the top of the rocker panel 
(not the aluminum sill plate, the body itself). The first hole is for the 
screw that goes through the front of the moulding. The next hole rearward of 
the first is 10 1/2 inches back and is for the first screw in the moulding 
mounting strip. Use your mounting strip to locate the remaining four holes. 
The most rearward hole is for the screw that goes through the back of the 
moulding. Use your moulding to locate the position of that hole. The rocker 
moulding runs parallel to the bottom of the door.
