Try Merlin Melrose up in Michigan. He was rattling off what he still had left after his crushing session to me at a recent show and I think he mentioned some '54's.

So this is for a 4 door 88? What price range? Where are you located? I may know where a 88 4 Dr is. And I may know of a two door if it isn't sold already.

Thanks for the help on these. Richard is in Albert Lea Minnesota
I just tried to contact him by phone to get more details. He did not give me , Length he needs , or if he had 2 or 4 door *88*

He did say the 2 that he purchased a couple years ago were expensive over $400
They are too short for his car. He did not give me part numbers for / from those. No pictures either. He is over 80 years old and has only contacted me through US Mail and via telephone.

I saw there were 3 different (pairs) of part numbers total of 6 for the 1954 Oldsies
2 pairs for the 98 ( 2door / 4 door)
Only 1 for the "S" 88 so that may really help to narrow down the search...

Super 88 2 Door
He measured the car today and thinks moldings should be 80 inches

If there is any chance he can get a close up of the ends of what he does have, I can check in my unidentifiable nos trim. Otherwise I’m just guessing.

What he has now is wrong for his car Too Wide as well as Too Short
78 1/2

Needs the correct length His body guy told him 80 to 82 inches long ( his estimate ) and narrower than what a 98 model 2 door would have

It would be nice if he had a "correct" to take / show pictures and measure accurately
