'56 cab trim
Does anyone make the Chrome (stainless) trim that goes around the rear window of a '56 Big Window?

I think Ford made some about 50 years ago but I don't know if anyone makes it now.

Cab trim
So if I want to add the Big Window trim to my rear window, I will need to find it in a Junk yard or swap meet?

Mid Fifty f-100 Parts carry's the reproduction trim for the big rear window. It is chrome over aluminum. They say it is beautiful and guaranteed. Mid Fifty says they fit like the originals and use stock rear window weather strip with grove and they come with all the clips. Price is $250 the order # is 1226. You can go to midfifty.com for the on line catalog.

Happy shopping!
Joe

Hey Jim you need to set up your gallery so we can see your truck. I am a huge fan of the big window.
