odd part needed

I'm getting close to completing my 55 f100 reclamation project. It should be back from the paint shop in a few weeks and I have all the interior parts i need in stock or on order. I am missing one part and I'm too cheap to buy the entire kit. The truck is a custom cab and I have all the pieces of the interior chrome trim that goes on the doors and dash except the short piece that is to the left of the steering column. I cant bring myself to buy all four pieces of chrome when I only need the one short piece. I would be happy to pay a fair price plus shipping if anyone has one of these pieces available.

Welcome to FTE! I don't have any chrome, but hopefully there is someone that has that lying around.
We saw lots of chrome at a salvage yard trip a couple of us took last week. Nothing for our years of trucks though.

We would love to see pictures of your truck. We enjoy pictures of parts and pieces as well.

As requested

Attached are some pictures. At this time I only have Before pictures. I hope to have some after pictures in a few weeks. It's in the paint shop and will come back Goldenrod yellow as I think it was originally intended to be

That looks like a good solid truck. And let me say Welcome to FTE the best Ford truck forum on the World wide Web!

So those stainless strips were on your truck and over the years the one little piece went missing? Good luck. If somebody has the whole set I'm sure he doesn't want to break it up.

Welcome to the board!
I can't wait to see your "after" pics. Shoot, the "before" pics are pretty nice. It looks like you had a real solid starting point.
