I was told they didn't. I posted a pic of my 69 1/2 Clone Bee(which has them) and was told it was considered incorrect from the factory. Any A12 guys?

They could as they were optional on all two doors except convertibles on which they were standard. This page is from the 1969 Dealer Data Book. http://www.andy440.com/1969p.htm

About a year ago I posted a pic of my Clone Bee and it was instantly pointed out to me that the door molding was Incorrect. That's ok. I like it, but always wondered. I've never personally seen one with it, but if you look close to the original "Six Pack To Go" ad, it has them.

Yeah, I think the BLT is relatively uncommon. If you guys will forgive me mentioning my non-A12 here, my '70 SB has the BLT and it APPEARS original (darn LR tag and no BS!) It sure took me awhile to find a good set, but I'm glad I didn't just delete the trim prior to paint.

It's not a common option....
According to the O&A report, only about 5.4% of all 69 Bees sold in the US got the molding. It was available but not common at all. Interestingly enough, it should show up slightly more on WM21 cars as opposed to WM23 cars.
Any numbers on the '69 Road Runners for the BLT?

My post car has factory installed belt molding but the pass mirror was an ad on. This car also came with bumper guards. Wonder if there is any pattern here.

My WM23 383 bee has it , and originally had bumper guards on the front also , no right side mirror .

If you like it THAT'S ALL THAT REALLY MATTERS , 99% of the people that look at the car don't know what's right or wrong to begin with , and it's a CLONE , and they won't know that unless they look at the VIN ... nice car ...

My info shows about 20% of US sold 69 RM21 and RM23 cars got the belt molding. More common on a HT.
Any info for a '70 WM car? Just curious.
