hi

Ford introduced the Custom Cab option for the 1955 Ford F-100 pickup. Although basically a new name for the 1954 Ford DeLuxe cab, it added 17 amenities, including foam rubber cushions, color-keyed two-tone upholstery, armrests, dual horns, light gray sun visors, side bolsters, kick and door panels, headliner, and sound deadener. A large Custom Cab emblem was on the doors just below the window, and chrome plating decorated the upper grille bar and drip rail. Further dressing up the 1955 Ford F-100 pickup Custom Cab was a selection of bright new colors and the option of two-toning....found this at how things work and julie might know better than me

I believe there was the chrome strip on the dash also, but I'm sure there is someone out there with way more knowledge than me...

There was a stainless molding on the front drip rail and a stainless strip across the instrument panel and on the door trim pad.

Also, the vent window frame was bright metal as was the Divider bar. The headliner was perforated for better acoustics.
