A friend is trying to help another guy restore a 37 85 series conv. sedan. He has a question on inside windshield reveal moldings. These moldings fit big series conv. cars only. Were they wood grained or chrome? Thanks, Bob

My '37 75 series convertible sedan has woodgrain. The dash and interior was original when I got the car. I have since redone the front seat and carpets.

Hi Harry, that's what the owner thought. The bad news is he gave them to a guy to wood grain them. The guy died & the estate threw them away! I guess he will have to find sedan ones to cut & modify. Any ideas on  a 36,37 big series parts car that might have these? Bob

Bob, I'm not aware of any parts cars around. Those mouldings are pretty unique. They look like they are cast, or have a cast piece attached at the top with a hook for the top latching bracket. If I run on to a set or a parts car I'll let you  know.  Harry

Harry & others, GOOD news. The moldings did not get thrown away. The owner now has them back. Bob

That's what you call "dodging a bullit".
