The '51-'52 5-Star Extra windshield trim will fit the older trucks, but you'll have to pull your windshield out and replace the gasket with one with a groove for the trim. You may also have to cut the gasket retaining tabs off the cab. You'll see them once the winshield is out. The trim shows up regularly on fleaBay and typically goes for around $150.

I also have a nice complete bench seat, and I am about an hour away from Ft. Wayne if you are interested.
