    Hey guys,
    This is Chris Gross from Pins and Needles Pleat Shop in Santa Cruz, Ca.
    I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find some Landau Top Trim. (I think thats how you spell that?) From my understanding it was a universal trim they used to use in the 70's and 80's around the landau tops. I think it is aluminum with some sort of coating on it and it is half-round with a lower profile, and comes in 6 foot legths or so...
    Does anyone know where I can find some? And if I'm mistaken on the name or the use let me know, it was a little before my time.

    here's a profile pic of what it looks like from one end. Sorry I don't have a pic of the acutal trim.
