what is the chrome trim strip that sits on top of the dash that is over the vent opening called. Used to have one and now can't find one

 

Are you talking about the defroster deflector?

 

Yep that would be it. Are those hard to find

 

What year truck? And chrome is not stock.

 

I have a 56

 

I'm sure there is one on ebay

 

And how would you know that?

 

midfifty sells chrome defrost deflectors now, and you send in your original like a core. If you dont have one, they pop up for sale all the time on ebay $35 and up. Make sure its secured to wood prior to shipment to prevent damage

 

Midfifty has chrome blem ones for $33 no core. Just bought one. If chrome is bad I will paint it. No big deal. Now all I need is help mounting the motor and trans, gas tank, radiator selection, steering column, wire harness...crap I have a lot to do....,.,

 

how did you get that? i dont see it on their scratch and dent?

 

They are sold out. Guess I got the last one
