I am looking for the "V" part of the chrome trim behind the rear driver side door. (1955 Super 88 4 door). I'm located in Syracuse, NY.

I found the moulding, but it's for a 4 door hardtop...completetly different. I have seen that piece on ebay a number of times - you should be able to find one fairly easily - sorry I couldn't help, but I will keep an eye out.

Which windshield pieces are you looking for? All?

Door panels are tough because they all go bad.


Depending on how detailed you want your resto, I know SMS has them for about $800 (exact repros) - or you can get a universal "kit" from Kanter - if you're missing yours completely I'd be happy to send you photos of mine so you know what they look like -

Here are a few pics - I can take different / more detailed ones if you have something particular you're looking for.

Keep in mind, this is a Super 88 - the door panels are different in a "Plain" 88

I will take a look tonight and let you know...I have one but don't remember if it's for hardtop or sedan - I'll match it to my sedan and figure it out.
