Title: 1960 Coupe Trunk Trim
Post by: Hayden P on December 16, 2012, 08:53:04 AM
hey guys... I am looking for the stainless trim that runs along leading (or bottom) edge of trunk...and then a small piece that follows on from that piece on each side of body wraps around towards lamps.

anyone parting out a 60 that has this ? ... happy to pay appropriately for good quality pieces.

Thanks

My '60 had Aluminium trim which included the Fuel Filler Cap, and the side pieces to the tail lights were either Stainless Steel, or Chrome Plated tin.

If you need the finned trim that includes the fuel filler door I have a set of the 3 pieces. Needs to be restored , polished or whatever but the pieces are nice.

$50.00 for all 3 plus UPS.

drop me a note if you have not found one. I believe I have one or 2 in a large pile of about 400 pounds of stainless trim that I have not gone through yet.

From memory, I think the pieces you are referring to are Diecast.

Mine were diecast, and full of pits.   At least the one across the boot lid was.
