Hey Cuda Hunter...What are the V5X pieces? (I'm too lazy to look and having some vodka)
Which year is this V5X molding? in Body Shop

Every picture I have is on that thread.
The cuda v5x is vinyl, body side moldings, in black.

The cuda did not have a metal backing like most mopars. The pieces were simple vinyl that were glued on. Your car appears to have some adhesive left over from the pieces but can't tell if there is one left on the car.
If one is on it and you are pulling it off for a restoration I would be glad to entertain paying you something for the part.

These are V5R vinyl bodyside moldings in red
I'm always looking for a piece of this color vinyl.

Also, Cuda v5_ all had a matching color pin stripe around the body side moldings. I have very few pictures of this pin striping also. I do not have a picture with a measuring tape for pin stripe width and distance's apart from each other and the vinyl trim.
If yours has the pin stripes I would ask for comparison pictures before the car is taken apart and body work/paint begins.

@Wyo70Mopar Looks great!!

It looks like you are able to use the original floors too. I see that the rear panel brackets are still attached. I'm about to install mine and could use some measurements for reference.
