    Hey Pat, I believe in the attic of my dads barn is some of side trim from his 41 chevy he had. He had a couple sets cuz he eliminated the door handles and had to cut them up to fill the notch where the handle was and then we brushed and cleared it all. Not positive but I believe they are the same from the door back 41-48?

    Let me know if you need it for anything?
    The car is lookin good by the way... and so is that beer...

    Beautiful car we need some more pics of it!
    I got your IM wish i had some trim to give you.
    Being they kicked my threads off the site "not period corrrect"
    But thought id share a few pics of my front end.
    I welded my fenders to the hood and opened up the top of the hood at the body line also used the rad. access hole as a ram air and built a scoop to grab air and shoot it up the opening and exits out under a tri five style bird i built thats open at the back and shoots air straight into the air cleaner.

    I love how you did yours if i would have left mine alone i would of loved to had it like that really nice!

    Beautiful work man, the details are sweet. I have always wondered why these great cars are not mor in the mainstream. The bomb Amigo's get it, but not a lot of'em around. Here is couple of shots of one at The Revolution that was top drawer. Keep up the amazing work. ~sololobo~
