Looking for your recommendations for after market suppliers ...

I need replacement stainless window molding for the doors on my '54 3100. Mine are chrome plated and pealing / flaking / rusting. Anyone bought the part? Will you tell me your experiences and recommendations?

I found the parts at these suppliers - ranked by price for a pair:
Classic Truck Parts ($149.95)
BowTie Bits
The Filling Station
American Classic
Golden State
Jim Carter
LMC
Brothers
Chevs of the 40's
Bill's Truck Shop ($210.00)

I thought about grinding and painting the existing trim, but the truck is pretty plain outside. The bright trim spiffs it up a little. It has chrome interior widow trim. Grill is painted, not chrome.

I searched StoveBolt and found some good info about how to install the trim. Any more suggestions?

Thanks as always,


- Lonnie
My '54 3104
