I need the Rear wheel opening trim for a 1955 Eldorado

Also I need the interior trim cover for the passenger side convertible top hinge.

I need 1 trim piece above the back bumper.... there are 6 of these fish gill looking pieces, I need 1 more.

Thanks, Mike Baillargeon

I have a '55 Eldo so here goes.

For the rear fender well pieces, you can likely find these at a parts yard
since they are stainless steel.  Try Honest John (he advertises in the Self
Starter).

For the pieces on the rear valence, I would try him as well (potmetal, so
more problematic). 

The "interior trim cover" for the top hinge -- I'm not sure what you
refer to.  Is that the rubber piece that covers the hinge on the folding top mechanism or what???  They are reproduced.  Try Steel Rubber.

Thanks Mike,

The piece I need in the interior is a metal cover that goes over the large hinge on both sides of the convertible top.

Its shaped like as large pork chop.

Maybe I'll try Honest Johns for that to.

Thanks, Mike

For the the rear wheel opening trim, the 1956 Eldorado Biarittz and the Seville will interchange with my 55 Eldo.   

If anybody has a set of these left over from their project let me know.

Thanks, Mike
