Reamer >> thanks.. Ok, i see the part in the list you posted, thanks..
But after scouring the web for over an hour, i find nothing available.. What to do ?
Is there a source for these or are they made of unobtanium ?

Currently made with first-class Unobtanium, Junk yards, they also are "running out" of 80's carcasses.
This might be the time to pick up a donor truck close by, there are still some out there.
See if you find one Without a title, they are cheaper...

kinda thought that, and they are probably just as brittle.
I'm surprised that there aren't any aftermarket parts being made.

I did some digging and didn't come up with much. This has been a problem for many years. It looks like everyone else is using later model a pillar trim, from 87-96 trucks. They say fit is the same. Still have to get ones to match your setup, headliner vs non headliner. The only difference is the mounting holes are different so you would have to drill a couple of under sized holes for the trim screws.
Can't confirm, just what I read here.

My passenger side was cracked I had the piece and was able to glue it up, the crack is visible if you look hard enough.
My drivers side is missing a chunk if you look at my resto thread you will see it. Don't have the pictures on this PC.
I bought some ABS I am going to form fit it with some heat and prayer to fix that pillar. and some screw points on my bezels. If that doesn't work I am going to try kydex. IF none of that works I am weighing two options. Create a mold and start fabing pillar covers or have my buddy scan this bad boy and start 3d printing them.

I can confirm it is not a 100% fit. The bottom is cut different due to the different dash, secondly the screw holes are different if that bothers you, thirdly where it interfaces with the metal trim across the top of the windshield is different.

I put a picture of the two parts next to each other. The tan one is my drivers pillar from 1986.
