    Just curious what trim have you seen that looks good,and what to stay away from? I just picked up some 58 buick side trim and in my mind I think it will look ok, but what do I know.

    I think '58 Buick trim should be great. Here's one with slightly earlier Buick trim -- not quite the same -- but the '58 stuff should look great with stock rear wheel wells:

    It depends on what your paint scheme will be......two tone or one color makes a big difference in the trim you want to use.......stan

    55 Pontiac trim is a stable choice. I have a couple sets if you're interested.

    I have 55 chevy trim on mine right now but I grab a brand new set of the original straight spears I think I'm going to use once I get to that portion of my build.
