Looking for the trim that goes on the quarter windows for a '74 Hurst. I already have one 'v-shaped' piece if that helps; need the rest.
Thanks!

It is the triangle window for a '74 Hurst. This has the targa which makes it a smaller opening then an 'S' model.
Thanks Greg, but still looking...

Keep in mind that Hurst modified the original GM pieces to make them work with the smaller window opening...

I have a want ad there too...trying to cover all the angles.
Glen: Do you think an average joe could modify the ones that came with the Cutlass 'S' ?

I don't see why not, but your issue is you don't have the stainless splice covers Hurst used to cover the cut on the bottom edge. Offhand I can't think of anything readily available that duplicates them, but there WAS something, and if Hurst used it I can guarantee it was cheap and easy to find. It's possible the same cover piece may have been used on those big-*** quarter windows on Ninety Eight or Caprice coupes.

Those plastic pieces should be easy to cut accurately using an X-Acto or jeweler's saw. Yah, I know, as expensive as those NOS pieces would be, you hate to go cutting on them.

I still don't understand why no one has started reproducing the stuff yet. As many Colonnade cars from the four Divisions as people are starting to do, there's a vast untapped market for someone. But I have to stop and think- Lagunas and GrandAMs had louvered quarter windows and didn't use the plastic trim, and those are better than half the market right there.
