Anybody with a 51 Ford Victoria??

anybody out there with a 51 vicky? i need a measurement of the length of the doors, and the stainless trim piece that caps the top of the upper 1/4 panels, unless it curves all the way around the roof and meets in the middle.. I wasn't sure if the vicky doors were the same length as the sedans..

thanks
Matt

I'll go measure them in the morning.

 

Yes, Tony, it should be the same on your '50 Vicky.

 

That's a rare one Dean, one of one? It does make a better looking car in my estimation though and I had a 51 when I was 15.

 

Dean is kidding; my car really is a '51 disguised as a '50.

The maximum length of the door is 46 5/8", measured a few inches above the stainless side trim.

The trim at the base of the quarter window is 24 1/4". It ends where the rain gutter touches down on the quarter, and the trim is angled at both ends. A second piece of trim continues straight back about 12", and then gradually sweeps around the rear window until it meets its mate in the middle of the deck.

 

The bottom edge of the door trim is 42-1/4" long and tapers in on both ends. If your going to Hard top a Coupe you will also need the windshield post. I think I could help you out with that.
