Into the fine details;
My car(58) had two similar but different louvered inserts when I got it.   The third louver down from the top was loose on one and it was a different louver than the others.  It had a top flange.   I spot welded it on.   I thought it might not be the right piece.   But I've got 4 now that have a "top flanged" louver panel in the third position down from the top.   Same as the one I spot welded.  So I'm pretty sure that's correct for '58 and the other one is not.   The other one has no such difference in the third position.   2,3,4 the same.  #1 is always rectangular.
The P/L shows two numbers for '57 and only one for '58.   
Does the '57 not have the flanged louver?   ie, I have one '57 unit?
Are there other differences in '57 to have two kinds?
